Black Cats: Stunning Photos

Photographing Black Cats Don't use a black background - you'll hardly be able to see the cat! Avoid shooting the cat against a wall as the black shadow behind her may merge with her body. Look out for dark shadows generally, especially around the head. Have lots of light on her face.

Tuxedo cats:

Some black and white cats have been dubbed "tuxedo" cats. This is due to the particular patterning of black and white fur, resembling a tuxedo and white shirt. This page displays a number of classic tuxedo patterns as well as wider variations. Of course, every cat's coat pattern is unique and they are all beautiful.

These cats are examples of bicolored cats - white cats with patches of color. Their coloring is due to the presence of a "spotting" gene that causes white blotches.

If you like these photos of mature cats, you'll surely enjoy seeing our very cute tuxedo kittens.
