Little Beatrice is a hard cat to photograph. She is so dark a black that the camera cannot focus on her. In fact, we only have a handful of photos that look good --- and we've had her for over eight years.
Beatrice is one of our shelter kitties. She had been at the shelter since she was six weeks old, and when we adopted her on December 22, 2005, she had been in the shelter for six months. No one wanted her because she was black. Well, she "picked" me right away. She came and frenzied all over my legs, and when I picked her up she climbed right into the hood of my coat and fell asleep there. Who could say no to that?
Well, just a few days ago, Elizabeth managed to get this fabulous photo of her as she was basking in the sunshine in the "penthouse". This is exactly what she looks like! Also as a note, she will have her ninth birthday sometime right about now! Happy Birthday, Little Bee!
