    I recently adopted a black cat. I had a husky/german shepard puppy that was killed. Black Jack, which I named him, showed up shortly after that. He is so sweet and he has the same markings as the puppy. I really enjoy his company. I was supersitious about black cats before he came along. I thought they were bad luck and I always tried to stay away from them. But when he showed up to my door and showed so much love for a stranger he never met before, I knew I had to take care of him because he was there for me when my heart was breaking for my puppy. Im blessed to have such a wonderful pet and friend.

    Black fur doesn’t show on your dark clothes
    Black animals are warmer on your lap
    They look good in any color accent
    They are happy to be loved
    They go well with basic black & pearls
    They are all eyes
    In a dark bedroom it’s easy to see them on the sheets
    They are the most elgant color
    They have no reflection, only a hole in a mirror
    They will love you without measure

    I love black cats.
    I have a little persian cat
    and there is this little black cat around where I live.
    We called him Mr.Imp.
    He is just so happy.
    Whenever my cat see’s him he runs off.
    But I think that black cats dont like it in house’s much.
    Well this one doesnt anyway.

    I have just got a black cat, he is almost completly black except for his to back paws they are tiped with white. I named him 8 Ball cuz his a bit crazy. My sister and I got both brother and sister cats (mine bein the boy) and i fine that her cat grey and white, has just that little bit more personality than mine. She is more playful and even more crazy. We love them they are our chrismas presents we picked them and they picked us.

    I have a black cat and he is the greatest thing in the world! Whoever says black cats are bad luck should go to England. There, black cats are good luck and white cats are bad luck.

    I’ve had my black cat, Penny, for 13 years. She is incredibly loyal and my oldest friend. I think there’s something quite different about the personality of black cats that’s very attractive. Penny is not a typical lap cat and doesn’t like to be petted too much, but she is only happy when the family is together and will wait by the door for hours for everyone to get home. Since I’ve gone to university I don’t see her much, but when I walk in the front door she jumps up as fast as her arthritis will allow and purrs away winding around my legs. She is completely awesome :].

    I have a lovely 8 month old black cat which has turqouise eyes. She called Nel and is stir crazy, when stuck indoors she will climb up your walls and door. The first week we fitted the door flap she got stuck on the neighbours roof through the night which was a shame but a lesson to her not to do it again after not being able to get down herself.
    I’ve had diffrent kinds of cats but always perfered black ones the best i find them attractive.

    We have a lovely black girl cat called Kenny! She is supposedly a bengal tiger but we have been stitched up because Black Bengals are an imperfection in the breed and subsequently of no value! HOWEVER, we love Kenny and would not be without her. She is totally mad, permananently stuck up trees, kills everything that moves in our garden and dices with death by running in front of traffic!

    I have a black cat too. His name is Minuit. He just turned 1 this may. He’s such a sweetheart, and he acts like a dog!
    I’ve never thought black cats were superstitious. I don’t think any of that stuff (walking under ladders, the number 13, ect) is bad luck. I’ve done all of it. And my favorite number is 13, just by coincidence. Hehe. :)

    I have a litter of kittens and on of them is completly black and he is the quietest and most gentle one of the five. He is very sweet and his name is Midnight he has the face of his mom and the colour of his dad. By the way I also don’t believe in this superstitous thing about cats but i kinda do about the other things.

    I used to have a black cat…and he was the sweetest thing…he used to do the funniest things……when it was dark he blend into anthing and scare me half to death! I think that it’s mean how everyone thinks that black cats are bad luck….they’re definalty the sweetest kind of cats…if I ever get another cat, he’ll will definately have to be black!

    I Have my two precious girls. Both black. I have had cats since I was 4, and been in the veterinary feild since I was 14..I’m approching 30. Black cats hold all of the superstition but in that I mean “intuition”. Black cats for me are all absolutely beautiful the most gorgeous cat . Behaviourly they are the most intuitive into what is going on with their beloved owner. If there owner is a true cat affitionado , they bond strongly ( more so than any purebred). There is so much love on a black cats half. It really upsets me that the world is so tossed up about old ideas and superstitions. I also think that more black cat owners should be educated as to whhey should be careful with their cat. it’s not just holloween, any religious holiday. Most of the world deems black cats as a bad omen. Most countries that have a religion associated with them. So watch out on thos holidays. I know for me if anything happened to either of my girls I would me a very upset gal!

    I am in the process of adopting a black kitty who’s about four and a half months old. When I went to the shelter to adopt a cat, all of them were very friendly. But this one was such a love bug! When he saw me, he got up on his hind legs and reached his arms out of the cage toward me. The girl working there opened the door and he literally jumped out, hugged me and started purring and licking my face! I know other people who have black cats and they are all unusually affectionate. I can’t wait to pick up mine. I am going to name him Jasper, and call him J.P. for short. That stands for Joyful Pussycat!

    I Have a Black Cat. A kid came to school one day with a bag full of kittens. While Everybody else went for the white and ginger ones, I fell in love with the eldest and cutest of them all. Tiny (as i called him) had a big family and it was hard for him to fit in with our quiet house. He is grown up now and he is the best. Black cats are not bad luck, with my experince with him he is as lucky as any other cat.

    I also forgot to put that Black Cats, I find are more acceftion than other cats. My cat allways purrs when around me and he snuggles up to me while im reading a book. Black Cats are not bad luck because of the colour that they are. I reckon its racsaict towards them saying that they are bad luck! :-D

    I have a black cat named Midnight, not so much original as far as the name goes, but his personality is one of a kind. You can tell when he is hyper or frisky because first he will become extremely vocal, and then he will thump his tail hard against whatever he is near. I can call out his name even while he is sleeping and it never fails, he will thump his tail once just to let me know that he is there. :) I wouldn’t trade him in for the world!
