I am an avid reader and once read a story about a penguin named Mr. Tux and immediately thought that was the perfect name for a male black and white cat. well, last Christmas, my niece found a little black and white kitten huddling in the window well outside my parents' house and ran inside to excitedly tell me that she found a kitty for her auntie. he's the embodiment of the Mr. Tux i saw in my mind. He'll be a year old this year and he's the best Christmas surprise ever!
