We have four blackies and I adore them. I hope perhaps the Cowboys Kitty gets a home. Poor little guy, you know he was scared stiff with all that noise.
I had a sweet all black kitty boy named Shadow for 3 years. He left too young (escaped one night and got hit by a car), but he was the best kitty ever! Black cats are awesome.
Most famous black cat on field? September 1969 cubs game. Black cat runs onto field, circles the on deck batter and runs back into the stands. First place Cubs season went downhill after that which gave rise to the amazing Mets eventually winning the world series.
I read somewhere that black cat adoptions have increased by 25% in recent years. I have had a black cat since 2015 and also have three torties that are mainly black in color.
That's good to know... It makes me really sad that some people still think black cats are bad luck, even to the point of hurting them. They're great pets
At the shelter where I volunteer once a week, a volunteer came up with a way to improve the adoption prospects of black kittens: while she fosters them, a retired vet declaws them in a humane way. As these are the few declawed cats at the shelter, they are adopted pretty quickly.
