Twiggy

Named for the model Twiggy, this little black cat came to RAPS years ago as a skinny little thing with tiny little kittens who, very sadly, didn't make it.



Despite this rough start in life, she's doing well in her life at the sanctuary. When Gaye introduced me to her today, all I had to do was smile and she went like this...



... and then this--



For anyone who hasn't had a chance to get to know Twiggy and would like to, you can tell her apart from the multitude of other black cats at the sanctuary by the little white dots on her nose.

    Nice, I might have a photo of her in my collection of black cats... I'll have to check for the markings that distinguish her. :)
