Re: Name my cats!
A void is a reddit-hipster way to call a completely black cat.
Based on how their camouflage is sometimes so excellent, or their coat so dark against a background, that they appear like negative space, especially in photography. I have two black cats and it does often happen that I will look right at them and not notice them, if they are not moving.- mirfak

We have two black cats, and inherited black bedroom carpet from the house’s previous occupants. This has the result that occasionally at night our carpet will open its eyes…

I don't think I've ever seen black carpet. Good thing you have black cats or every single hair would show.

They had some godawful gothic thing going on, with faux cast iron candelabras and curtain rods. It’s a smallish house built in the 1990s not a mansion 🙄 The cat hairs don’t show but every single other bit of dust and lint does. We can’t wait to be rid of it.
