6 years ago I adopted a black cat from a shelter, she was the last cat left after an adopt-a-thon weekend. I feel in love with her at first sight. She has been the best cat, totally dedicated to me, and so loving.

My SO didn't like me living alone so she got me a pet in about the same manner. Last cat, black, cracked teeth, anxiety grooming. After four years there's still a wildness to her and standoffness. But she can be so loving at times and I try to make the best home for her to make up for what she's been through.

I’m a black cat mama! Adopted 16 years ago from shelter. He’d just been dropped off the day before and he didn’t belong there. I know God brought me there to get him. I’m in US but his microchip had a Canadian address and I live in Texas. He’s been the best at everything. He loves walks together, some along side ne and sometimes going down the sidewalk on a leash 8 houses down from our house, crosses the street, and heads for home. He understands English and will change his behavior on the spot when I explain to him what I need him to change for and then do. He changes the color of his mane when in the sun to burgundy, brown, grey, white, and black. He’s magnificent, I know, and everyone tells me do. Very very smart too. My heart swells with love for him and he’s totally spoiled. My ptsd went away after I got him and we became fast friends. Cats are spiritual healers and he also helped rid my depression. He’s my best friend. I prefer his company over people. ❤❤

@@marycoates4671 I love animals, so I've always taken good care of my fur babies. I'm cat-sitting for friends when needed, too. Felix was an indoor-outdoor cat, so when I moved 20 years ago I had to find a place where he'd be safe and happy. He would have been a miserably unhappy indoor cat. I'm getting old enough now that I want to move to the small town 10 miles from where I live while I still have the energy to move. I need an easier life. I plan on volunteering for a cat shelter there where they take in indoors cats who need a new home, too. Knowing me, I'll quickly be adopted by a pair of senior indoor cats who have lived together and shouldn't be separated. I give myself a couple of months, tops! 😂

I am crying right now commenting about my Chanel. She was all black but in later years had brownish tips. Her hair was long. I found her wandering around a little kitten barely the size of my palm. She was the most amazing companion to me and lived 22 years. Everyone loved her. When people would come visit she would sit by them. She was very social. She had the most beautiful spirit and everyone loved her. She had a habit that every morning she would knock over something by my bed to wake me up so I would pay attention to her. When she was younger she would sit on the bath tub when I took baths to keep me company. She never bit ,scratched or was mean in any to anyone . When I would groom her and she would have knots she was very patient. She now and then would bring me a mouse she caught in the old house we lived in. She was the sweetest most gentle pet I've ever had. She's been gone now for quite a while and I miss her. Everyone that knew her still misses her. I have her ashes in a little urn where she sits behind the couch with my other lovely pets. When it's my time to go I hope she greets me and we are reunited.

She also used to wait for me to come home from school at the top of our drive. Then she’d see me and come running down the road to meet me. She was so gentle and I never once saw her catch or kill birds etc. The day she died I was so upset I was physically sick. It’s been a very long time ago, but I’ll never forget her.

I am now on my third black cat. I love him dearly. He’s a great cat, but he sure knows how to get under my skin and he does that every minute he possibly can, but he’s my buddy.

We have a Black Bombay. We got him when he was barely 4 weeks old. He is extremely affectionate, curious and very comfortable around his 2 big brother "dogs". A mastiff / pit - and a Belgian Groenendael / Malinois. He's a great napping buddy too!

[@CatzDolz]

SEVERE MIS- INFO ...Sorry!....the ancient Egyptians worshipped a GODDESS named BASTET or BAST. and so they bred cats for SACRIFICE to their goddess. = EXTREME ANIMAL CRUELTY. FACT.

[@Pythonaria]

The first cat I can remember was my Auntie's black cat, Smokey. I would have been about 2 years old at the time. Since then I have loved black cats and currently have 4 of them - all rescues. One of them has the most stunning green eyes that appear to be luminous. The other three have gold/green eyes. I also have another 4 cats (again all rescues). Two Tabbies, one Tuxedo and a Ginger & White. The black cat with the luminous green eyes is also highly intelligent. He will watch what we do and try to copy. He learned very quickly how to open most of the doors in the house, so much so that I had to put a childproof lock on the kitchen door to stop him getting in after he turned the gas taps on during the night. Luckily when I woke up I immediately smelled gas so didn't switch on any lights - the tiny spark at the switch is enough to ignite it. I live in the UK so we have natural gas which cannot gas you. Recently I watched him trying to open the childproof lock but he couldn't do it because there is a stiff button on the underside. He was trying to work out how to press the button and was pawing at it. Smart cat. Our latest addition to the family is an ex-feral black cat. Took us 18 months to catch him. He was an unneutered Tom and had disappeared for several weeks. My neighbour had been feeding him. Our neighbour left and we took over feeding him. Thought he'd gone for good when he turned up one evening holding up his front leg, very skinny and looking sorry for himself. Poor cat was starving which made it easy to catch him. Straight to the vet, was neutered, microchipped and his leg fixed. We were worried incase it was a fracture but it turned out to be an abscess which the vet cleaned and drained while he was under anaesthetic. He is now happy, healthy, a good weight and has super shiny fur that feels like silk. Like the rest of my cats he is an indoor cat now and has adapted well. He sleeps on my bed nearly every night.

[@zev3143]

That's a great story about the ex-feral cat. I'm glad he adapted so well! It's a good thing your door-opening cat doesn't have opposable thumbs. He' d be unstoppable. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but my two brilliant cats were both all black. One of them had shiny green eyes with orange highlights in the sun. I had a desk next to a door and he would stand up, wrap his paws around the door knob and turn it and push. Then he'd leap down and stroll out of the room. 😸

[@lynnettespolitics9656]

So nice that you spent all that money to fix him up, thanks! We have money now to spend on vets, but there have been many times throughout the years that we didn't.

[@Pythonaria]

@@lynnettespolitics9656 It was less than we anticipated as we thought he might have had a fracture but it turned out to be an abscess. To see him come from in pain, skinny, starving to what he is now, safe, shiny, healthy, pain free and much loved, he is worth every penny.

​@@David-x6e7nwho keeps wildlife in the house, with or without pets?? The City Council wouldn't allow it. There are not even wild animals in the streets, too much traffic and noise. Cats and dogs are only allowed out on a leash, too dangerous to walk free. If you don't comply, your pet will be seized and you'll have to pay a hefty fine. And why would someone hate any animal?? We're all on this planet together, with skin, feathers, fur and scales. If a spider comes into our house, I gently convince it to go back out. No need to kill. Please be kind to wildlife, petlife, humanlife, treelife... We're ALL part of Creation 😊

[@candicek.4659]

Black cats are the best cats! I’ve been lucky to have had two. Both were like dogs, played fetch, followed me from room to room. Lived for attention. The first one would go on walks with me and also guarded me and my newborn. Both extremely loving, cuddly and affectionate. My last one lived 15 years. He was my soul kitty.

[@sciencenotsrigma]

I had one like that! It’s such an amazing experience. He left me a kitten he raised just for me, one of the street kitties I socialize and fix up, and rehome or bring to shelters. He used to do at least as much work with them as I did! She has FIV, and the shelter still put FIV+ cats down then, so that was out. She is such a loving girl, now! She was sick, her whole first year, but is now a healthy 3 year old. Their average life expectancy is 6, but the vet said if they get to 2 years old, the odds of a normal lifespan are good! While I know losing her earlier is possible, I am hopeful, and we enjoy every day together. I can’t keep the street kitties for long, right now, because I have to be careful she is not exposed to any diseases or parasites, so I fix them up a room and do my best, until a spot opens up at the shelter, but I am glad my cat is safe. I’m excited that my local humane society has started accepting FeLV+ and FIV+ cats, but none have been adopted, yet. 😢

I have 2 male black cats. One is a British shorthair with one eye, and the other a cross between an Oriental and British shorthair. They absolutely adore each other and are never far apart. They sleep curled up together and enjoy grooming each other. The Oriental cross cheats on his bromance buddy with my ginger female British longhair. I guess he likes to spread the love.

Every black cat I've known are highly intelligent, very lovable, and have a great sense of humor. It's true about what you said that at shelters, black cats are overlooked. I was surprised when I found out how superstitious people can be...they don't know what they're missing. Black cats are phenomenal. One very special black cat I knew had the most incredibly gorgeous brown eyes. He was very talkative and he was a delight to communicate with. He was brave and protective of other cats, very gentle and a real snuggly one with me, and in his laid back gentle way, he knew he was the man of the house. Super adorable. Super smart. He's passed away now, but he was just about the most amazing cat I ever knew.

I rescued a feral black kitten that my friend found in her barn. It was the only kitten she could catch. She's about 13 now, and besides being full grown she basically hasn't aged one bit after adulthood and is in perfect health. She is the sweetest cat and the vet is always amazed she has perfect teeth without a single spot of plaque or tarter on her teeth. And she's very vocal.

[@alisonb5921]

@@dipaknadkarni62 We had a black tom cat, when me & my younger brother, were kids. Our parents were poor, then. They couldn't afford to get 'Sooty', desexed. He would take off for a few weeks, then come home, yowling to be let in. He stayed home for a few weeks, then he'd go again. We lived in a semi-rural suburb. There were a lot of 'feral' cats, around. People also dumped animals, in our suburb 😥. Our neighbours all had indoor cats & dogs. 'Sooty' was about 5 years old when he left & never came back. We put up 'lost cat' posters, everywhere, but no-one found him. Then 4 months later, a tame pregnant, tortoiseshell cat came to our door. We asked around our neighbourhood, but none of our neighbours owned her. She would've been dumped. Mum took her in & put her in the laundry. She made a bed for her. We named her 'Henrietta' .3 days, later, me & my brother, came home from school. Mum showed us the 'surprise'. 'Henrietta' had given birth to 4 beautiful kittens. 1 was black, 1 was ginger & the other 2 were Tabbies. When they were 6 weeks old, we found homes for the ginger girl & the 2 tabby boys. We kept the black kitten, we called him 'Shadow'. 'Henrietta' weaned him. She became my cat & followed me everywhere. She slept with me at night .'Shadow' preferred my brother. Both of these cats, lived to a good old age, too ! 'Shadow' may have been 1 of 'Sootys' offspring? Dad got a promotion at work, so when 'Shadow' was 6 months old, we got him desexed. We also got his mother, desexed. Both of these cats, were indoor cats. I've always loved & owned cats. I love dogs, too ! . I have 4 cats, now & 1 rescue dog. 🐶😸😸😸😸❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺

Love this video for the positivity about black cats. More awareness is needed about how wonderful they are, just like any other kitten. My son works at a shelter and sadly people avoid them, not even wanting their children to touch them. As kittens they are the most playful and their shiny black fur is just BEAUTIFUL 💜
