My "roommate" at my parents' house is Suzy Q, a rescued feral cat.
The missing eartip is a veterinarian's mark, indicating that she has been spayed. Although you can't see it in this photo, she's also missing her tail, which was amputated some time ago because of recurring infections. She's a very small cat, about eight pounds (and, given her understandably endless enthusiasm for eating, may weigh more than that shortly...), and looks much healthier than when I first made her acquaintance.
What a beautifully expressive cat! Seriously, she has the face of an ingenue! Very Audrey Hepburn.

Is she lovable? Affectionate? All tuxedo cats I've encountered had a fabulous coat and better personality. Never heard of the ear thing; my French cat got his ID tatoo in his ear. My tuxedo kitten tried to wash the tatoo away; very cute. Annoying for French cat, but adorable for the rest of us.

Love her eyes...and the name is cute. We have two cats that we have rescued, one looks like a Siamese and the other is black as night.
