Expert cat stroker sounds like an ideal job title to me lol. I don't recall ever being scratched by a black cat either (luck perhaps lol) while my black and white (ragdoll type) cat who despite looking like a cute fluffy thing, regularly attempts to scratch me (I've become very good at avoiding it though, she never gets me). She's also very jealous of the black one or so it seems when she slaps her in the face if she gets served second.

See this world's got it all upside down, my stroking expertise & service rendered to the royal feline family should have me a millionaire with titles by now! There was interesting docu series not 2 long back, they put cameras all over these 2 streets & on the cats. Seems a lot of cats have a harder time living near each other than I originally thought. Edit; It was on the BBC & it was called 'The secret life of the cat'. [Edited 10/2/16 12:11pm]

Oh yes, I remember that show very well! I even watched the repeat, it was so interesting. We did the same last winter (putting a night camera in the house and outside in front of the catflap over a few days) as we could hear a lot of noise downstairs every night and we had noticed that our cats were looking nervous lately and also very hungry in the morning despite their bowls being totally empty. And well the videos were very informative to say the least. Our neighbour's cat was basically terrorising our cats out of our own house all night and eating most of their food. That was enough to convince me to get them both microchipped and to install a microchip catflap. Best thing we ever did. We've had peaceful nights and two happy cats ever since.
