Did you know that October 27 is National Black Cat Awareness Day? Well now you do! We're absolutely elated that there is a national day for black cats, because truthfully, black cats never get enough love. In fact, black cat appreciation is sadly much lower than that of other cat breeds, because people have spread the superstition that black cats are unlucky.

However, if you haven't read our article fun facts about black cats, then you might not know this, but black cats are actually one of the most underrated cat breeds. Yes it can be a tiny bit hard to take pictures of them, and yes they are pretty impossible to find when it's dark, but that doesn't mean hey aren't worthy of love. Nothing is cuter than a pile of purrfect black cats purring and napping together, nothing! So everyone needs to reconsider their opinion of black cats, and we're here to help with that.

Give the gift of kindness this holiday season by donating to our Giving Tuesday fundraiser to help homeless pets and animals in need! It's time to pay your cat tax!

Awww, look at these beautiful voids, just sitting, scheming, and plotting together their world domination. Remember when we said that black cats aren't evil? Well these awwdorable babies are just a tad evil, and we're loving it. Just look at these green eyed cuties being hilarious together.

Woah, is this a bear cub? Is it a tiny black tiger? Is it a saber toothed puppy? Nope, turns out its just an awwdorable tiny black kitten. Look at how this void just blends in purrfectly with the black blanket in the background. Such a cute little black kitty, so adorable and full of pure wholesomeness.
