Black Cat Appreciation Day on August 17th aims to dispel all myths surrounding black cats. Additionally, the day shouldn’t be confused with National Black Cat Day.
Superstitions aside, cats are simply adorable, even black ones. These feline creatures in their sleek, black coats may carry an air of mystery. However, most cats do. Along with that, their ability to find mischief or to avoid you equals that of tabbys, cinnamons, gingers, calicos, whites or grays.
“>Treat Your CatHowever, one black cat fact that holds true is they are less likely to be adopted. Just like black dogs, this variety of cat gets shunned at shelters. Despite this, black cats still respond to love and attention no differently than other felines.
So, let a black cat cross your path. They aren’t witches. More than likely, adopting a black cat will help keep the mouse population down around the place. Expect the number of cuddles in your life to increase, too!
Charlie was abandoned by his previous owners. After a diligent search for his owners, we adopted him. He was already so socialized and sweet, we could not even consider consigning him to a shelter. We already had 3 cats but there was no way this personality would do well in a shelter.
He started out as my kitty, due to some health issues and a natural preference he adores my husband. They talk, and Charlie will talk and lead you to his treats.

If my husband leaves the house, or even goes to a room Charlie cannot follow he serenades at the top of his lungs. He also sings to us when he brings you a catnip mouse toy or pompom.

Every day the man who swore we did not need another cat spends extra time in the bathroom with him. This is thier private time. He’s even teaching our newer additions to carry on his traditions.
