"Blackie, found as a very small stray kitten by Ivy Blackhurst, now dines on steak and salmon. In 1975 he was heir to a house, pound 22,000, and a housekeeper's services. When Blackie, who is 14, dies, the balance of the estate will go to the RSPCA. "

Thanks to all of you who answered this morning. Some great answers, which I would not have managed without your help.

bobobalde111 ... I found the breed I was looking for this afternoon - it was Tiffany ( lamps ). Thanks for your suggestion and time and effort, all the same.
