We had a black cat but he got fluffy, which might just have been because he was outside. And outside cats can be perfectly healthy...our white and red one is 13 or 14 and our tabby is 14 or 15 now. The black one died and we don't know what happened, the male tabby ran away, our friends gave us their cat but he had health problems and wouldn't pee in the litter box so mom decided to put him to sleep, and the white and black one had diabetes and would run away so he didn't get enough insulin...so we had to put him away.
Aww...Am really sorry to hear about your losses. It's difficult to care for cats with health issues sometimes.
My cat in the pic, Clied, was also an outside cat. He lived until he was 17+ I think. We lived in a rural/farm area so wasn't any dangers about for him. My current cat Mew, a fluffy, is an indoor cat. Honestly she is more hard work than my outdoor cat was, but I sailed that ship when I decided to keep her as an indoor cat. I did build her a mini garden/catio so she does get some outside time. She plays fetch like a dog though. XD
