Plenty of black people own cats, what’s the issue?

Adopt, don't shop!
Up for title
All cats I've owned were "oh! A cat!" Style cat. My grandmother had a Russian blue and a Scottish fold, although she lost the Scottish fold to my mother when she moved in with us. That cat loved my mother. I loved the Russian blue. He was an idiot.
Domestic short-hair.
Call yourself a Void owner, much cooler. https://lemmy.world/c/voidcats

Cat types:

• Orange

• White

• Blue

• Void

• Tabby/standard issue

• Tortoise-shell/tortie

• Calico

• Siamese-style (may or may not have the face/head shape, but does have the coloring)

• Snub-nose

• Stubby-legged
- I think the siamese-types might just be orientals with the same color pattern as siameses. Which is basically the same thing as far as I'm concerned but apparently there are differences
  
  Cat tax : my future son (oriental void)
  
  Yay for Oriental voids, this lady has been in the family for a decade, also, everytime I hear someone say that all cats are assholes, I know that they never had an Oriental
  
  I couldn’t remember the word oriental so I used the one I did remember.
- My cat is not listed.
  
  We found him on our porch. When people ask his breed we just say porch cat.
  
  Name is Fluffy.
  
  Mine is a gas station cat
  
  I have two porch cats. They don't look it here, but are actually kind of giant.
- What about Maine coons?
  
  I think they are technically just huge long-haired tabbies since they are the result of colonizers’ cats adapting to the North American winters.
- The stubby legs are pretty unhealthy I believe. I wouldn't support anyone who breeds cats for that purpose.
- What about those freaky-looking bald cats
  
  Sphynx
- How could you forget tuxedo?
  
  Type of void
- Where is Felix the cat? Also, kitler??
I've heard just as many Cat owners be pissy about their cats' subtype
- "just as many"? Press X to doubt. I don't doubt you've heard some, but people just don't care about cat breeds in the same way people care about dog breeds.
  
  Hence the meme
- Cat subtypes:
  
  Asshole
  
  Not asshole.
  
  Not asshole.
  
  There is no such subtype.
- There is a cat fancy, purebred cats exist, but there is a population of normal cats in the world that haven't had their genes mangled, where there really isn't with dogs. Every single dog in the world is a something something mix, whereas my cat is "a grey one."
  
  Cause cars haven’t been domesticated, just tamed or whatever. If cats where domesticated to the extent of dogs we would have way more breeds.
Is that Schlatt
- Yes and that's jambo in the pic
Selective cat breeding should be made illegal before we end up in the same situation. It'll happen soon if it's not stopped
The funny thing is, that eskie looks like a Samoyed cross (source: I own an eskie, and have that conversation about what breed she is often).

That being said, I also have a fluffy void, a fluffy female orange cat, a Muppet of a calico with weird half curly fur, and a ...i don't even remember her pattern, but I think it falls under bicolor with Egyptian Mau colorations.
