Discrimination Against Black Cats

Did you know that black cats are one of the most euthanized animals in the United States? It is sad that black cats are thought of as evil and Halloween kitties. If you have ever owned a black cat, you would understand that it is pure discrimination against this wonderful animal.

So for those of you who love animals, but are less partial to black cats – open your eyes.  Check out all the cat adoption places in your local area and notice how many black cats have a difficult time being adopted out.

For those of you who love black cats like me, let me know how you feel.

  1. As you tell, I love BLACK CATS. They have the dynamic eyes. And thanks for putting up this website.

    You have excellent taste. Black is Beautiful.

    The Black Cat is the most superb of a superb species. I could go on for paragraph after paragraph on the sheer utter excellence of the feline noir but I fear you may think me conceited. I am, after all, a black cat myself.

    ( Second place in the Top Cat stakes goes to the Ginger Tom).

    I adopted two amazing black cats after fostering them from a kill shelter. I never thought I would share my life with black cats. But two days after fostering them I was in love with them :) They are the most amazing cats I’ve ever known. Affectionate, funny, talkative…just perfect for me. Today is Friday the 13th..may our lovely black cats bring us luck :) )

      Hi Andree – that was very generous for you to adopt both cats. Yes – much luck to all of us on Friday the 13th.

      Coni :)

    hello fellow black cat lovers! i love the article it is so true the black cat has such a bad rep. i adopted my first cat ever about 1-1/2 yrs ago, he was 11 weeks old, i only wanted a clack cat. i adopted him from nine lives a NO KILL shelter in MA. i would just like to say i think some people forget that cats, especially black cats were once praised like kings or pharoahs in ancient eygptian times, they were thought to be bring good omens and protection. they were so sought after and highly regaurded that they were mumified like the kings and queens of eygpt. i personally think they are very regal looking cats, and they are loveable and very entertaining animals.

    I have two black cats of 9 years old.They have brought me nothing but luck. But..isn’t it true that cats aren’t really black as in black? In the sunlight one of mine is very darkish brown with tabby pattern. The other one is ‘more of a black one’ (possibly mixed race) and has one brown eye. Even he has a tabby pattern.
