Raise if your hand if you have a black cat, and then keep your hand up if your cat has been personally victimized by stigmas about these beautiful cats. You might be wondering, "Who says terrible things about black cats, no one really believes that old superstition about them causing bad luck, right?" But unfortunately black cats and cats with distinctive black and white fur markings are often the subject of harmful stereotypes and mean jokes. And we don't know why, because these super adorable cats are full of love and affection, and they have so much love to give!

After learning more about these magnificent cats, we knew that we had to prepare an incredible compilation via Twitter of the best black cat comebacks, puns, jokes, and memes. These super funny tweets really showcase how funny, gorgeous, sleek, and stylish these cats are.. People often ask, are black cats aggressive? But if you have a black cat yourself, you'll know that they are definitely not, just cute and awdorable loveballs! We're just crazy about these darling and dapper cats who bring out the formal regal-ness in us all. So without further ado, we hope that you enjoy this super funny and sassy thread courtesy of twitter!

Preach you cute little void kitty, we completely agree with this! The superstitions out there about black cats are totally inaccurate and have made there be a lack of homes for black cats to be adopted into. So toss out your superstition and start loving these beautiful creatures ASAP!
