Sharing a few photos of my very own black cat, Mr. Guy Noir!

Capturing an oak leaf.
Feeling like the luckiest black cat in the world! I was so inspired,
I even wrote a poem! I found some Louis Wain illustrations that go
with it perfectly!

Please note, Guy was never off leash in any of the photos. I edited out the red leash for a nicer photo.

Mr. Guy Noir is absolutely beautiful!! I love black cats as well. In fact I have been thinking of adopting one :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a handsome boy!!! I love his name, does he have a side business as a gumshoe? We had a lovely black cat years ago, "Eb" (short for Ebony)... he was a little devil, got into everything and we LOVED him so.
ReplyDeleteHeeHee... Yes he is a Private Cat Eye! Black cats are fabulous!
DeleteMr. Guy Noir is so handsome. I love black cats! I have one, and she is the sweetest, friendliest little thing. I wish people would get over the superstitious nonsense and embrace these wonderful, loving creatures.

Mr. Guy Noir is a handsome cat, indeed. It looks like he has GREEN eyes. He is going to fit in just right on Halloween night. Your poem is delightful too. Did I ever tell you that I love poetry? Just can't help myself. Enjoyed these pictures tonight of Mr. Guy Noir.

What a handsome kitty he is!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a handsome fellow he is. Mr. Guy Noir looks a lot like my Cindi Lou Who except she has a touch of white under her chin. I love black cats and I love your poem.

ReplyDeleteLovely to see some more pics of Mr. Guy Noir, he is such a handsome cat. Fancy showing his black side (O; Excellent rhyming I am very impressed.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your sweet comment on my blog – the weather has been very spooky indeed! Some people are still without power and there is flooding in some areas, but we are safe and dry – thank you. x
LOVE black cats - hello Guy Noir!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your lovely comments! I will pass them on to Guy and give him a hug for you all!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful boy!
ReplyDeleteWonderful poem! I love it. Perfect. And beautiful photos of your Mr. Guy Noir. He's magnificent. :). We have a gorgeous black kitty named Otis. We adore him with all our hearts. Every day i tell him many times how very much i love him, and our other three kitties too of course.
ReplyDeleteI love your cat pictures! I love your cats!! I love all cats, but black cats have a special place in my heart! Your poem is amazing Diane! You are very talented! Big Kitty Hugs ;o)
ReplyDeleteThat cartoon/sketch is so neat! I love my black, and black and white kitty, too. Still can't get over the name Guy Noir, that is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI borrowed the name "Guy Noir" from local radio show host and author "Garrison Keillor", Guy Noir is a fictional private detective regularly featured on the public radio show A Prairie Home Companion. Played by Garrison Keillor, the character parodies the conventions of the pulp fiction novel and the film noir genre. Guy Noir works on the twelfth floor of the Acme Building in a city that "knows how to keep its secrets", St. Paul, Minnesota.
DeleteDiane - Guy is just a delight to see and my friend such talent...your poem is excellent! I have such a fondness for black kitties - I have had four felines that sport this color and have loved them all. I have to say Guy is one of the most handsomest I have ever seen! Have a wonderful Halloween and if you see any black cats dancing by firelight - call me . Hugs
