Pearls, natural gemstones? silver, and others

I blame it on the cat when the cat isn't even in the same building. She can't complain of the abuse and wouldn't care even if she knew!

Hematite is dark gray; these look black on the screen. It also likes magnets since hematite is an iron compound. It'll rust if you get it wet and sticks like glue to a kitchen fridge magnet.

 

my Dad used to blame the cat for his farts........

I thought it was hilarious ...............Mom...not so much !

The Cat......was oblivious !

 

That cat said "yeah? So? " and went and investigated the food dish.
