My Boys Binxx and Binxx

my boys
I have owned a total of 4 black cats. The 2 in this photo is of Zachary Binxx and Zane Binxx.
All my cats are named Binxx with a different "Z" first name. The one to the left is Zachary and is about 15 years old and is as loyal as a dog. He cannot be anywhere without me. The one to the right is Zane also nicknamed "the baby" he is about 6 or 7 years old, not as loyal but has to sleep with me every night.
They are both very large, Zachary is 20 lbs and Zane is about 14 lbs. They are lovable lap cats that are so spoiled, my mother often says when she dies she wants to reincarnated as one of my cats!
Anyway, my funny story is about Zachary, when my mother and I moved to the city she gave them Poland springs water because she thought the tap water had a strong chlorine smell to it. So I thought "go ahead and give them your water, I don't care" one day she ran out of the Poland springs and I caught her red-handed pouring my Fiji water into their bowls. Well Zachary tasted that water and would drink 1/2 the bowl in one sitting, and since then refuses any other water.
Mom thought it was ridiculous that he just liked the water and made me take him to the vet to make sure he didn't have kitty diabetes, well 267.00 later to find out he really does just likes the water. So they get Fiji water....
