Over the summer of 2008,
there was a large, solid black cat,
presumably a male, that hung around with
Abby and Gabby. I am absolutely certain this
is Sable's father. Sable is a beautiful
sleek, shiny black. The only thing that
could make him more beautiful would be
orange eyes. But his green-gold eyes are
still striking. I had thought about naming
him Salem, but again my sister did not like
this name, so we settled on Sable. (Yes, I
know that Sable is actually brown, but the
name stuck.)
Up until he was neutered, Sable was pretty
fiesty, chasing Pepper-Ann up the climbing
tree. After the procedure, he became less
aggressive, and now comes up once or twice
an evening to get petted and scratched on my
computer desk. He has a lovely loud, rough
purr that he uses frequently. In fact, I
have observed him giving Pepper-Ann a head
caress, rather than chasing her. Over time,
I think he will turn into a very nice cat.
