LOL...that's a very funny description you gave of your cat. Why did you name him "Pye"?
Pye has amazing green eyes. Very unusual. Mysterious. I must say he does look rather ornery. He has both a cute and sweet and a rather sinister look about him. I can easily imagine him "attacking the other animals in the house, or for that matter, anything that moves."
He was named that at the shelter because he's all black. In the '60's TV thingy about a witch called "Bell, Book and Candle", her black cat was called Pyewackett. Pyewackett was also a name for a witch's familiar or imp. And my Pye is definitely impish.
He has very lovely eyes, yes. And he is rather grumpy. He especially doesn't like men.
I've had him for about a year and a half, ever since spring of my junior year when my beloved older cat Colette died. He came from our local Humane Society, where he lived with his three brothers. The other three were very outgoing, but Pye was painfully shy.
"Pyewackett was also a name for a witch's familiar or imp." Sorry, I don't follow this. What do you mean "for a witch's familiar or imp."?
Why is he grumpy? Have you spoiled him? I think he may be protecting you from men he thinks are not really good for you. is this possible? Cats can be very intuitive. Maybe he senses the guys that come over to your house have only one thing on their minds and he wants them to get the hell out!
Did you read in the newspaper the story about the cat who could predict when someone was going to die? The story was just in the news about a week ago.
How old was Colette when she died? Colette is a pretty name. How did you come up with that name?
You know how witches in legends have familiars? Creatures that have magical properties. Imps are just creatures that hang around witches and are very mischievious.
He's just not especially friendly. And he is a bit spoiled. I think if he wanted to protect me he'd be a bit violent about it. He just hides. And the way we know he hates men is that he thrashes especially hard to get away when I try to introduce him to male guests, not all of who are romantic interests. Although sometimes I think he is taking care of me a bit; whenever he's sleeping on my bed and he hears the door or the phone, he gets up, runs to the edge of my bed, and growls very loudly.
I did. Be nice to be forewarned, huh?
She was only 10 :( My mom likes the author Colette, and it's a very pretty French sort of name. Colette was very elegant and classy, so we figured it fit.

How long have you had Pye? Where did you get him?
