Introducing ..... Dusty and Kuro

A little over a year ago two new members joined my family. Let me introduce Dusty and Kuro.
Dusty is a blue Abyssinian, and Kuro is a black Siberian.



Dusty came first but he was so naughty when he was young that we decided to get him a friend to play with.
"dusty" means "tinged with grey"
 いろがくすんだ, 灰色がかった
Kuro's full name is actually makuro-kurosuke from the small black ball spirits you can see in the Miyazaki movie Totoro.

In English, まっ黒 is "pitch black". When he was a kitten (baby cat) he was totally black, but now he has some brown and dark grey around his neck like a muffler :)
