not the other way around.

My brother and his family had a black cat that my brother found hiding under the hood of his car. Abraham was just a kitten then. My brother started his car to go to work. There was a terrible yowling. The poor cat had his tail damaged and he had to go to the vet. Part of his tail had to be amputated. He grew up to be a beautiful, shiny black cat. He was part of their family for many years.
