Black cats...

[Beldarna]

I love all the pictures! Give me more! Please.

oh beldona where did you get that little harness !i could do with some as my cats are indoor so only go out with us  ?

Is it me you're refering to? The brand is Puppia. They make harnesses for both cats and dogs and they're super soft and comfy, no digging in on the flesh when wearing one of these. I got this one from a local webshop but I think the brand is somewhat international.

SO MANY KITTIES!! What a great thread. My baby's a silver tabby but I have a special place in my heart for black cats. It absolutely breaks my heart that people are less likely to adopt a cat based on color alone. Back when I was in Wind Symphony we always wore black for concerts, so personally I think black kitties look elegant and distinguished.

This is my mom's cat, Gimpy. Terrible name, I know. She's tiny, fluffy, and three-legged—basically the world's most tragic ex-stray. She's got a meow that sounds like Oliver Twist in a soup kitchen.

These pics were taken a few years ago, around Halloween actually. Here she is with my family's (now deceased) kitty Wiffle in the foreground. They were very festive together.

I love kitties!! My baby is orange...

Sounds like Zion recovered from his liver failure, yes?  Great!  I've been wondering.  Out of curiosity, how long did it take before he was eating normally again?

These kitties are all so pretty and full of personality!

Vintergatan, that coat color is really amazing! I've never seen one like it

[Vintergatan]

Thanks Salli
I've never seen a kitten like that before either, and every vet that sees her always comments on how pretty and unique she is ^^ But that's just her looks, her personality is even more amazing I just love her so much <3

Edit: here's one more of her, the one that Latrodectus the Pony is painting in my profile pic She is sitting in a silly pose as she was cleaning her leg ^^

You people are soooo lucky to have a cat  (Oh well, atleast I can treat my boyfriend's cat like he's mine)

As a sad point - Black Cats are the least adopted at shelters & rehomed because of superstition.


I think Black cats are the best!

my first 2 cats were black, and they hold a special place in my heart to this day

Snowball was all black, and long haired. He was the best cat I have ever had the pleasure of knowing to this day, followed closely by my longhaired calico that passed about a year ago.

Blackie was our short hair. She was a stray my parents took in before I was born. She lived on my pillow and I took care of her as she got old and frail. She was amazing!

Snowball would pick the fights with the neighbor cat, and when he would get cornered Blackie would come about and kick butt to save Snowy. It was comical!

Black dogs, too.

Black cat owner. Samhain showed up as a stray, at my bff's house two years ago. He was a eight week old kitten, demanding to be let in. She called me and I adopted him. He acts more like a big guard dog instead of a cat. 

And to balance things out I have an all white kitten. My bff and I fostered a momma cat and her litter of four kittens over the summer. She kept one kitten and gifted me with another on my birthday last month. Arwen is now Samhain's bff.

Yes, both coat colors are unjustly picked on. Actually, I think both colors are lucky due to my religion. And have no problems with them.

I've enjoyed reading the stories and looking at the pictures. Keep it up.
No pictures, as Google + is being cranky with my photos.

Lots of basement cats in this thread, lol.

Black dogs?  What's the superstition involving them?

Not so much a superstition with the dogs, but they do get overlooked at shelters, like black cats tend to:
