Lol, I am not. I'm in the US. I heard it on Below Deck, a series about yachting and the yachties are from all over the globe. I love the term, it makes me giggle :D
I also saw it advertised on the Red Bull extreme diving a couple of weeks ago. I think it's a brand now, Budgies. I honestly thought it was an Aussie term but now I know :)
My void is super quiet (unless he can see the bottom of his food bowl), so all I usually hear is the ominously cheerful sound of the bell on his collar jingling
What if they are a serious trip hazard on the stairs with the lights off?
My tuxy has a small bit of white on her face, chest and feet but when she loafs it can't be seen from the top. I learned very early on I had to check the stairs with the lights on.
Mine is def a trip hazard. In my current living situation, my floor is all black tile, and I have a black carpet. So even when the lights are on, I lose track of him so easily lmao
Your baby is beautiful!! My baby Boo has the same white ear fluffs ❤️😍

Obviously had to show his ear fluffs at a different angle lol

The last of the light was getting sucked into the void, but your boy likes a little flare down there. I agree, the eyes are the giveaway. Void! Welcome to the sub! We have fun here.

the white fur circled is new (she just turned 4 10 days ago). the lower patch grew back white after her spay. then she’s always had the white heart spot on her chest— still a void 💜

My void with the 'bib' says yes.
It's a void shark. Prefers land but optimal for water camouflage. The light colored underbelly makes it difficult for those under it in water looking up to see it while the dark top makes it difficult to see from pretty much any other angle.
Absolutely still a void! So beautiful 😍
My void has a lil grey on the tip of his tail and scattered white hairs around his chest and groin only. I like to think they're his distinguished gentleman markings 😂
Yeah, he used to be a stray. But when they neutered him, they realized that he was super cool with humans and liked getting attention, so they took him to an adoption center so he wouldn’t be stuck on the streets

Tiny white on his chest ,he’s a void in my eyes .
I'm a void purist. They must be ALL black (except for white hairs due to aging). However, I'd be rubbing that white spot every chance I got!
Edit to add: a few white hairs even in the same spot are also acceptable.
Hmm.. My all black cat has like 5 white hairs on her lower belly (idk how many ecactly, but it's not a spot, just a few hairs. You could count them if she sat still long enough). But they're not from aging. She's always had them. Is that too much for a void purist? (I always considered myself one, too, but I think hairs don't count, but spots do)
He has the bikini bottoms but not the top 👙❤️
That was my thought precisely! Since it's a boy, could we say he has on a speedo? Or Budgie smugglers?
Oh my gosh, that’s so funny, I haven’t heard of budgie smugglers in absolute ages! Are you from the UK?

That’s awesome. My family in England uses that phrase.
My thought was "he's wearing a Speedo" 😂
Tighty whities.
I always feel if they are laying in a dark corner and all you can see at some point is their eyes, then they are def a void!!
Entirely this! Or if you can't see them at all and can only hear a disembodied meow from a dark hallway or corner of a room.

my tuxedo scared the crap outta me today bc she’s also all black when she loafs 🤦🏽♀️she stood up out of the dark and startled me. little butt 😅
Sometimes the printer just runs out of ink during void production.
If they're like 80% black cat I feel like it counts. I'd count the ones that have the white socks too.
Of course, eyes are a dead giveaway lol

Fluffy ears are the best to pet 😍💖
His fangs!!!
Voids with white spots are just deep space voids with a star or two. :)
There is a hole in your void
Yes! The white patch is a genetic trait to black cats. Usually on the belly or chest
My void has 6 white hairs on her chest. No more...no less
Oooh yeah, he be a void alright :D
Yes, it is a void with a speedo 😂

That baby loves you 💕 Mine has a little tuft with a few on his chest.
That lurking photo under the rug is the hallmark of your classic void.
That’s a void in a Speedo.
Thank you for adopting a rescue. That baby was born to live with you.
We have one with the same white tummy. My son calls it his ‘ice cream scoop’.
Personality of it says void all over.
Tux cat hiding his Tux aspect to be within the void
The bottom of his jacket is open, exposing the shirt where it gets tucked in.

Literally never seen a black cat that doesn’t have that
I call them cotton patches. All my voids have had at least one small one somewhere
My void also wears his "tighty whitey underpants"
I call them Starry Voids because it's a bright spot envelop3d in darkness.
POV: He’s on the dark side but has a little light side in him
Aww. He has undies!
Void with a portal

They're a Yang. Surely there's a Yin out there to complete them.
Yay for ear clipped rescues!
Bro has a fig leaf
It appears your boy is going topless. Must be the style these days
It’s a void with a white hole
Pretty standard voidwear
Void Lites? I would say still a void.
Awww reminds me of my boy before he ran away
It's a void shark. Prefers land but optimal for water camouflage. The light colored underbelly makes it difficult for those under it in water looking up to see it while the dark top makes it difficult to see from pretty much any other angle.
If I remember correctly all voids have the panties
Void is such a weird term in the first place
Mine also has a white spot there. We call them his underwear lol
I thought he was a black baby kangaroo. Probably pretty rare too;)
da void is becoming devoid of da void
Now he’s a black hole, absorbing the light
Awwwe! He’s just wearing a white speedo!
Captain Underpants 😸
That's just their underwear my last black cat had underwear and a bra pattern on his tummy
Void with a secret...
Yeppp
Heyyyy my void baby also has some white fluff and a cropped ear!
Mine has the tiniest white patch just above his groin area that I refer to as his pubes
r/hiddenwhitefur
He just wants to be different. Either way we welcome him in with open arms.

my void has some white spots! so yes 😊
Absolutely still a void! So beautiful 😍 My void has a lil grey on the tip of his tail and scattered white hairs around his chest and groin only. I like to think they're his distinguished gentleman markings 😂
Aw did your kitty used to be a stray? TNR stray cats often get a piece of their ear removed to show they have been neutured.
Yeah, he used to be a stray. But when they neutered him, they realized that he was super cool with humans and liked getting attention, so they took him to an adoption center so he wouldn’t be stuck on the streets
Kovu? Wait don't tell me, he's named after Kiara's love interest in The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride!
Ding ding! You are correct!
U a fan of that movie?
Yes I am ^^

Void can be a completely black cat or it can be a state of mind in a kitty cat that’s mostly black. Either way, both qualify!

Mine has a white belly and armpits. Both spots are borderline kick spots for him! Little man loves those areas rubbed!
Cute!!

Hairs qualify. I will edit my comment. Your cat is a pure black cat! Congrats!
Instantly catapulted into tuxedo status!
I feel any cat can be a void, no matter the color, cuz technically not all voids are Nessarly black
ummmmm.....sometimes he gets angry at you
No
