Black Cats

Hi sysdexlicwriter! I hate seeing that people really are so stupid and believe that black cats are unlucky! As you have a black cat that is sweet, so do I! His name is Star! And out of all the cats that I have ever had he is the most sweetest loving cat ever! He is my loverboy cat! He is always with me and has to be touching me all the time! He likes me to hold him in my arms like he is a baby! He lays next to me in bed and puts his kitty arms around me like he is my loverboy! He is just so sweet! I have never had a cat like him ever! And I have his brother, Luna. They are from the same litter and they have completely different personalities! Luna can be sweet too, but not like Star! I would adopt every black cat from the shelter if I could! Besides being sweet they are so beautiful! I just hope that the shelter won't let the cats be adopted around Halloween! I have heard that some shelters won't just in case people are adopting them for evil purposes!

I would adopt a black cat, there's no problem with the color, it's still a cat. And for the plain color of black, i find it unique. And there are no religious nor scientific explanations about black cats as jinxed.

I have 4 black cats, and one, Scamp, is my favorite cat. oh, I forgot, right now we have 5, one of the little ferals is also all black my first cat was black and I went looking for a black cat/kitten I've barely ever been without a black cat for any length of time

already have one:) we inheirited my uncle's all black cat when he passed away,and he is a BIG one at that.he looks like a dot with ears but he is anything but bad luck...unless you ask one of my other cats..now they have to share their toys

Hi sysdexlicwriter, May I ask where you come from? I live in the UK and actually here its meant to be GOOD luck to have a black cat cross your path, But i do know that other contries differ on there black cat superstitions. And superstitions is exactly what they are in my opinion. I have a black cat, he is also a rescue cat His name in nemo and he is now 5 and half years old and the most adorable cat I know. I love him to bits and he has never bought me bad luck, I wouldnt say he has bought me much good luck either though lol. But I never even thought about luck when I adopted him and I wouldnt have had a different cat

We have a black cat, and I have never understood how anyone can think they are bad luck. Both of our cats had been abandoned, and they are both good cats. I don't know how anyone could be so cruel as to abandon or abuse any animal.

to me, colour is the last thing on my mind. when i first adopted my cat, i don't even know what ticked fur means. i learnt a lot after getting my first cat, the one in my avatar. subsequently, when i lost my tabby, i went around looking for another tabby. in the end, i got myself two cats who are both non-tabbies. one is a reddish brown cross and the other is a semi-long hair stray. you can see their pictures under my pictures. to me, the most important thing is the 'link' between the cat and me. it's something that is not easy to explain. it is just a feeling that i get when i first saw them. it's the feeling that i must have this cat and the cat feels the same way too. just like any relationship, it won't work if it's only one-way. to answer your question, it's a resounding YES as long as we both feel we are right for each other.

I have a black cat. As a matter of a fact I have his photos here on MyLot. I love him and he has never brought me bad luck, just his play mouse. Ainge

Its sad really that people have to be hatelul against black cats because of a bunch of stupidstitoins. The Kat family lives with me. Miss Kitty Kat, the mama, and her children, Missy Sissy Kat and Bubba Kat. Kitty and bubba appear to be black. When people say any crap about that i show them what color they really are. If you brush their hair backwards its a grayish undercoat then they are not "black" but they are "black smoke".

oh that is just so much malarky i really wish i knew who started that stuff/belief. also, you need to keep a black cat in around Halloween. some stupid people have been known to steal and abuse them. i've seen people that will run themselves off the road to hit one if its crossing in front of them. i've had several that were loving and quite wonderful to have. sometimes they are even more people oriented then other elusive cats.

I use to feel that way years ago (meaning the bad luck thing), but I have met some of the friendliest black cats over the years and then it just dawned on me that there was no logic to the bad luck theory. So yes, I would adopt a black cat and now that you mention it, I may specifically look for one to adopt at the shelter. After all, they need love too.

I consider black cats to be lucky, if anything. We own two. One black girl who is fluffy with a white spot under her chin and imaginatively titled 'Blackie' hem hem. Her grandson, Magnus, is very handsome and knows it. He is very long and slinky. Together they are a couple of characters, albeit very different. Blackie knows when I am worried and sits closer and usually puts a reassuring paw on me lol. magnus is extremely chatty and vocalises about all his adventures. These cats always make me feel good, and a good feeling can only bring luck!

Hi sys! I would definitely adopt a cat and I wouldn't care whether it's black or white or multicolored coz I just love cats! They're fury and cuddly; they're like living stuffed toys :D They're also very clean! When they're not eating / sleeping, I always notice them cleaning their body :) Plus, they keep the pests away ;) I've also heard about that superstition that black cats are bad luck. I don't believe in it (or any other superstitions out there) coz I really don't see the logic of it. Cats are one of God's wonderful creations, why would He make something that would give us bad luck, right? Actually I've always wanted a black cat cause it seems like they're rare. I love looking at their fur coz it shines when it's hit by the sun :) We used to own one but that was when I was like 5 or 6 years old. My parents named him Felix, after Felix The Cat :) And check this out, he was bestfriends with our dog who was also jet black like him! They both always cuddle and play with each other and also clean each other's back! LOL! They were really cute :) So how's your black cat? Hope he wouldn't be easily frightened anymore now that you've adopted him. There are really some poor cats out there who are abused by other people. If only I could adopt them all!!

There was a small black cat near my house, which was a weakling. Whenever it got some food on the road, some big cat chased it and took the food. When I tried to give milk, it was not accepting. One day it was in an unconscious stage as it was without food for four days (as told by my neighbour). Then I gave him milk in a plate and forcibly made him drink that. Slowly it picked up it's health and got used to us. Now it is a healthy grown up cat of 1 year few months. It is a black cat with some white patches. See for yourself in the photo. I do not find any bad omen because of that. Everything is going on well and better, to be specific. It's name is Kanna.

I read about this as well and it's sad. Black cats are just as loving as any other color and wish for a forever home just as bad. My daughter has a black long-haired cat going on 10yrs. now. Maybe this is why our streak of bad luck has lasted this long? j/k Lil' Bear is such a sweetie when she wants to be. Every night when our daughter goes to bed, she'll call her cat and no matter where she is in the house, will come running and mewing at same time to cuddle with her. She also happens to be the healthiest animal we've ever had. Only time she sees a vet is for her shots and when we got her spayed. That's it! Black cats and bad luck are just forklore..no such thing!

I personally believe we make our own luck. Walking under ladders is a simple matter of common sense, the number 13 is significant on a lot of levels in many religions, none of them are negative. A black cat is just a black cat. I've had two. Both of them were lovable, adorable pets. One wasn't really black, but you couldn't tell unless the light shone on her just right. She was a Brown Burmese. She "talked". She said "want out", "want milk", and "get out" and "mama". She had that typical meow of a Siamese that some people find frightening and creepy, but she was adorable. If I were going to adopt a cat, the color would make no difference.

i don't think that black cats are bad luck. i think that they are cute cats too. but i don't like them cause the color is quite dark. and in our place we have a boring place. and i want some cats with light color so bring a brighter mood in our place. if our place is a very happy place i will not mind to adopt a black cat. but generally i find those black cats as black all over their body quite scary sometimes. specially if they are in dark places and you don't know they are there since you can hardly seem them in dark places, it can be quite a scare . ha ha.

I have a black cat and he is friendly and very sweet. He just showed up in our yard and has been here ever since. We do have to watch him around Halloween because a lot of black cats have been harmed around Halloween. My luck hasn't turned bad or anything since we adopted him in the family. He is a very unique cat and wouldn't trade him for anything. So, in answer to your question if I more room for more cats I would definitely take another black cat. I have 2 cats and a dog at the moment and don't have room for any more.

hi, I can't believe they are still people that still lives in the dark ages and still think of Black cats as bad luck.we had a black cat that kept vising our house and eating our trash but i don't think he's bad luck. no wonder cats are mutilated during the ancient times because they think of them as bad luck..
