Boo! It's Spook-heckin'-tober. This is it, people, this is the season! It has officially started, and we are stupidly excited.

This is the season of black cat magic, y'all. The black cat memes are coming, the awwdorable black cat pictures, the wave of black cat adoptions is upon us, black cats here, voids there. It's all about the most underappreciated cats this Halloween spooky season, and oh lawd, we cannot wait for all the black cat love that is about to flood the interwebs.

Y'all should get ready. This black cat appreciation collection is merely the start of this Spooktober. But it's a strong start to one of the bestest months for cats everywhere. So, boo, cat people, prepare yourself for some purrfection.

We shall start this collection with one of the most wholesome pictures in the bunch. This one is to remind everyone that black cats do not deserve the mean treatment that they get in the world, that black cats are not only beautiful but can also be incredibly affectionate. This is a relationship that will last a lifetime, we assure you.

And we give this one to you immediately after. Because don't get it twisted, people, we don't just love black cats when they are adorable and affectionate. No, we love black cats for everything that they are, and that includes their moments of madness. They are purrfect. Purrfect, we tell you.
