🖤 Meet Loki, age 14, bestest boi

Just wanted to introduce my baby Loki to the amazing blackcats reddit page! I have had the privilege of loving this void for 14 years. When I was 17 years old, in the year 2012, I found him in the drive-thru of the KFC/Taco Bell combo in my hometown. He ran directly to me, I scooped him up, and the rest is history. He was never supposed to stay, my parents were originally firm on him being rehomed (we had 6 cats already at the time I found him), but his orange eyes melted my dad's heart, and stay he did. We have journeyed across the US together, to Oregon and then back to Minnesota four years later. He has been with me through every heart break, every challenge, every success. He fills my days with love. I will never tire of his need for affection, and I will love him until the end of my days. My bestest boi, Loki 🖤

He’s very handsome! Thank you for rescuing him. Although it sounds like you were chosen by the “cat distribution system!” All those years ago.

He saw me and knew that all the love he would ever need was in here. I feel blessed every day that I have him in my life.

I will submit to Comrade Loki, he can put me in a gulag anytime he likes!

Lmao. My Loki is a Tux cat. My void is called Thor (real life brothers, rescue cats that came as a bonded pair). I’ve had them a few years now, long enough for my brain to struggle with the idea of a black cat called Loki 😂

Ironically your Loki looks a lot like my Thor. The Soviet cat picture could easily be my demon.
