Spooktober Special: Black Cat Appreciation Collection

Another week has passed, and that means that we are one week closer to Spooktober. And you know, that makes us both happy and sad, because while we cannot wait for the spookiest, bestest day of the year, we also don't want this black cat appreciation month to end. Well, suppose we'll just have to make the best of it and give black cats as much love as possible now. 

Like the previous week, we're coming at you with some purrfect black cat appreciation posts in this Spooktober special. Because we will make the best of this month, and we will convince all the black cat haters that they are the very best and should be loved, even if they camaflauge themselves on our black sofas and give us small heart attacks every time we go to sit down. Love furrever and always.

    Walter may love his new quilt, but we can promise you that we love Walter even more than that. Like- look at this little goofball with his little teefs sticking out and his derpy expression. If he does not go as a vampire this Halloween like he does every Halloween, we will be personally offended.

    Oh lawd, now we are just confused. Are we supposed to love this cat because it is a gorgeous black cat or because this is a distinguished senior cat who is living its best life? And how is it possible that it does not look a day over three? Smh, we suppose black really does not crack. Also, let us pet this awwdorable void, please.
