Why Black Cats Are The Best Cats
Alexandra Michalski

With it being the month of October, it makes perfect sense to see images of black cats everywhere you go. Whether they're next to witches or flying on broomsticks, these cute, cuddly cats seem to be synonymous with Halloween. Yet, black cats have the lowest adoption rates across the board mostly because of their supposed connections to old superstitions. Some believe that these cats are symbols of bad luck, misfortune, or even omens of death. My own great-grandmother would stop and turn her car around if a black cat crossed in front of her when she was driven. I can't even begin to imagine her face if she knew that I own one of these supposed omens of death myself. After owning Sapphire for just over three years, I now know that black cats are some of the best cats you can ever own!

Toothless or Sapphire? You decide.

Just look at that adorable face! It makes you wonder if the animators of How to Train Your Dragon designed Toothless after a black cat.

Sometimes they look like they just finished an entire box of powdered doughnuts

This is the face of a glutton who just ate an entire box of doughnuts.

A black cat with white lips just makes it always look like they finished snacking on those tasty treats.

Any picture you take of them in the fall is the ultimate aesthetic

Pumpkins are usually okay but gourds are scary.

Just plop down a pumpkin next to your cat or take them outside towards a pile of leaves and you instantly have your next Instagram post!

They are quite possibly the cutest little ghost detectors out there

Just look at that adorable face staring at nothing.

I have two cats. One is black, and one isn't. One chases things that aren't visible to the naked eye but are on camera. Any guesses which cat sees the ghosts?

It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.
