Are you superstitioes about black cats?

We all know Friday the 13th we all know walking under the ladder.We all know the black cats and all the superstitious things. How could one believe such crap. When accidents happens on days like this is because they start to believe in the nonsense and they try to be careful.But they don't realise that they are too careful and they don't realise they are the cause of some accidents. So why believing in this kind of things while it's not the ladder who causes the accident.It's just stupid to walk under the ladder,because one wrong move and people get injured.You see it has nothing to do with the ladder it's just something which can be dangerous. How could you ever blame a cat for you having an accident.If you watch the cat and not anything else and someone crashed at you.Than it's you they would blame because you didn't look. You see it's only stories which we believe in.There's no such thing as a curse.It's the human mind which is so strong.That's why my father always say be careful with what you wish for and with what you think.

superstitions are just that... superstitions. i have 3 black cats of my own and i'm fostering 4 black kittens. they're marvelous ... and they're no different than any other kitty. :-D

Well, I own 3 black cats so if I was supersticious of them, I'd probably be in alot of trouble. LOL :) However, I do have other superstitions that my mom and grandmother kind of passed down thru the generations. One is about opening umbrellas up in the house, and another is about setting new shoes on a table. I think there are more, but I can't recall right now.

i'm not superstitious about black cats. i don't care about them actually. i'm not afraid of them, and i don't like them either. much prefer white kittens, lol.

I've owned a number of cats that are black furred and they have been wonderful companions and good friends. So I don't believe that they are ill-omened. I've never heard anything about keys on the table. The thing about the mirror though started as 7 years /change/ of luck, not 7 years bad luck. So breaking a mirror isn't necessarily unlucky. I've heard a lot of superstitions. Just a few that I was taught by my Grandma are: If you spill salt on the table, throw a pinch over your left shoulder. This is to ward off the devil. Never open an umbrella in the house. Walking under a ladder is unlucky. If you see a penny pick it up, and all the day you will have good luck. I've since found out that the penny is supposed to be heads up. But I pick them up either way since no harms ever really come from picking one up that is tails up.

No i do not believe in such things.. But my parents follow these superstitions... i always try to change them and i have succeeded a little in changing... i guess there is no scientific reason for those superstitions.. are there any ?? so all in all i dont intend anone to change their opinions in this regard because i respect others beliefs.. Thank you.

nahh .. i dont believe in superstition stuff .. these are all just fake .. there has been a lot of time . wen i must have walked on . even wen a black cat has crossed infront of me .. its all just old sayings ... nothing ever happens :)

i do not believe in this. I own two of them

Black kitties need love too! I think the only way that black cats are bad luck is that there are people in the world that would hurt them simply for the color of thier fur. It is the reason that I lock my kitties up on Halloween night, regardless of thier color. I love black kitties, and I hope that I have another one soon. Often they are the sweetest and most affectionate cats. I think they are good luck!

I myself am not superstious but my mother is. If a black cat crosses her path she will turn around and go the other way. Doesnt matter how far out of her way it might take her. She also wont walk under ladders,and throws salt over her shoulder if she spills it.

i'm not superstitious about black cats. i see a lot of them all the time and haven't experienced the worst luck. i think it's unfortunate that these creatures get blamed for ill luck that people may have.

I own three black cats and have never had any bad luck fall upon myself for owning them. Superstitions are what people make of them. What about people who actually manufature mirrors; they are bound to break more than the normal person. Do you think they have any worse luck than others? I don't think so (if they did wouldn't they quit their jobs, therefore creating a shortage in mirrors?...hasn't happened yet). You can blame "bad luck" on numerous things, or you can take the "bad luck" with the good. Not everything in life is going to go smooth and steady; everyone has hard times, and it usually isn't a specific-colored animal that caused it.

nah, i don't think that's true. In fact here in the philippines, elders have TONS of ridiculous superstitions including the one about the black cat. Now i've broken dozens of these superstitions and not once did I encounter coincidental incidences. I think those beliefs are solely for entertainment purposes :)
