Spooktober Is Finally Here, So Here Are The Best Black Cat Appreciation Collection Posts Of The Past Year

Here, on ICanHasCheezburger, we show love to all cats. No discrimination. All cats are purrfect to us, that's fact. And we know that the same is true for you guys. Throughout this past year, we have given love to all kinds of cats: from ghostly and fluffy white cat appreciation listicles, to listicles appreciating the one and only braincell that ginger cats have, to listicles loving the sophisticated handsomeness of tuxedo cats.

But right now, the time has finally come for another group of cats to shine - a group of cats that gets more hate than any others, a group of cats that people avoid, a group of cats that people don't adopt nearly as much as they deserve to be. Friends, it's Spooktober, and you know what that means. It void time, it's black hole time, it's time to show the purrfect and beautiful black cats that we absolutely love them!

"My sweet girl..."

"My sweet girl. No one wanted to adopt her because she stress-groomed herself half bald, was dangerously underweight, and was so scared of everything she needed to be carted around in her bed to meet new people. Say hi to Minerva, Mini for short."
