Did any of these black cat facts surprise you? 🐈🖤
Y'all forgot one fact about black cats.
Fact 11:
Most fully black cats are males. It's rare to find one that's female.
There are 22 breeds of cats that can be completely black? That's cool!😺🖤
I didn’t realize that black cats are considered to bring good luck in some cultures. Seems a lot more accurate than them bringing bad luck. I love my black kitty 🐈⬛🖤
@Diamar PR arts I am the proud mama of a female black cat and the proud grandmother of the only kitten who survived out of her 2 liters. Her name is Moonshine, his name is Felix and he just turned 3 mon.old yesterday.😻😻
They all did.
Black cats only deserve one thing, all the love that every other cat deserves.
Abso-freaking-lutely
Very true.😤👌👌
I chose my latest black fur baby because I wanted a black kitten and the 3 we had previously taken in are my wife's cats.
Nevermind the way he wrapped my heart around his kitten paw.
Prove that cats haven't learned how to be cute in order to get a home.
@@Awestefeld6612 truth
I had a Black cat her name was princess but she was hit by a car 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
“If a black cat crosses your path, it signifies that the animal is going somewhere.” (Groucho Marx)😀
And Groucho was a major ailurophile (cat lover), so he would have known. 😉🐱
noooooo! I would have never guessed! 😁
Black cats seemed to always be on a mission. Very determined.
Came here to post that!
It means good fortune coming your way so don't x it ok out or take another route.
I adopted a black cat recently, and he's the sweetest natured little cat I've ever met
Adopting a black cat was the best decision of my life back in 2018. Best ever. And the stigma on them is evil. Humans are cruel . Not black cats.
Aw! What's his name?
@@beccas.7762 Cha-cha
I adopted one in 2015 and she hates my guts
When I adopted my first black cat, my family was apprehensive. They even stopped visiting for a while. Then, he won them over with his friendliness and charm. Now I have a second one who is still a baby and she is the most loving creature I have ever met. Black cats are awesome. 🖤😻
U can never stop at one. My black cat was lonely and needed a friend so what better friend, another black cat.
I got two black sister and brother panther kitties at 8 weeks, so glad I kept them together!.. they both have their own unique personalities..I love them too pieces..
I have a black tortoiseshell cat, and she is the sweetest cat that I have ever seen.
Same!
My neighbours son found a black ringtail kitten in a small park across from our home. My son named her Tiberius but she doesn't seem to mind.
As someone with a black cat, I can confirm black cats are friendlier then 90% of non black cats, that’s why I love them so much XD
I agree. I have two black cats
I have one, let me tell you how much I’m in love with this kitten
About a year ago I found a very small black kitten and fostered him hes the only cat I've had that will crawl on my chest and fall asleep and head nudges me in the chin that's affection right there!
@@kathleengivant-taylor2277 same, but one of them ran away
@@tsnmproductions sorry too hear that
I highly recommend adopting after the October holidays, black cats are amazing and very sweet cats. Mine actually knows when I have a migraine and stays by me like a little nurse.
Adopted mine in June x3 way ahead of ya.
I share my home with 2 amazing short hair black cats and yes they are very sweet and it’s like they know when u don’t feel well or something is wrong and they stay by ur side. Yes I have had cats of other coloring and they were great cats but there is something special about my two black cats
My 2 black cats seem too know when iam stressed or sick and they stay near by. I have had other cars of other colors and they were great cats but have too say this is a first
Oops cats not cars. Typo. Lol
Awesome
I named my black cat after the lucky black cat from Scotland, Cait Sith (pronounced catshee) who was believed to be the king of all cats. It literally however translates as cat fairy. If you left some food out for him on Halloween, it ensured that your food and grains would last the winter and you would not starve. If you didn’t he would not give you protection and the mice would invade your food store, spoiling everything.
wow! really interesting! luckily my black cats get fed every day. LOL 🐈⬛🐾🐈⬛
Wow, what an interesting and meaningful name for your kitty! 😻
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing, I love that name. 👍
I love that! I gotta tell my daughter about it!
🖤🖤🖤
A friend of mine passed away. I was so upset, cried and cried. My black cat would not leave my side. He was SUCH a comfort to me.
I love black cats! I had one named Inky. She was lovable and a great mouser when young. She had a great life and passed away peaceably in her sleep at 21 years old. I miss her!
Awww, sweet Inky! Love Always remains❤️
I had one called Inkling! Hahaha...my sister said come visit...I had no inkling she was gifting me with a one week old orphan tarbaby girl! Ink lived to be 22 years one month and 1 week!
I have my inky on my lap right now, 99% black cat. He’s very sweet.
❤️
Aren't they all just so sweet! I didn't realize that Inky was such a popular name.
Thank you all. Give your cats a hug from me!💜😸
Black cats often have awesome purrsonalities!
Agreed! 😻
Most definitely‼️ They sure do‼️
Loving that pub XD
So punny.
I saw what you did there.
I'm gonna quote you. That was epic❤
"When cats were killed, their murderers were sentenced to death" . I'm ok with bringing that law back.
Me too!!!
Bro are you ok just asking?
My black cat was a magically spiritual precious cat. She was such a good luck to my life and I loved her so deeply💗
We were adopted by a black stray cat. He followed my wife home. He now lives with us and is a wonderful affectionate compagnon. Smartest cat I have ever seen. He saw which drawer we were putting his spare toys in. It is a cheap ball at the end of a stick that is destroyed by him in 20 minutes if he is left with it. As a result we have spares, well, he managed to open the drawer himself to get to play with the ´fresh’ new toys.
My black cat used to open the (previous) refrigerator, so we had to "bungee cord" it closed, or he'd make himself a midnight snack.
He also liked to jump on the stove timer, so it would sound off (again, in the middle of the night).
He could also drag open the HEAVY heating drawer on the bottom of the stove, such that you could not store food even temporarily in that feature.
When he was a kitten, I lived at my water access only cabin and the adoption agency ~ knowing this ~ made me promise I'd not let he nor his female litter mate outside....as they were concerned that an eagle or raven might snatch them up.
It was incredibly difficult to sneak out the door without them...and a book suggested I gently mist him with water to discourage him from either jumping on the counter or being in a dangerous area.
When I misted him he LEANED IN and SAVOURED the spritz.
I invariably laughed and he'd (temporarily) escape.
Folks, it's just a paint job, it's still a little ball of love underneath. Say no to stupid.

Just about every black cat I have come across has been extremely friendly, more so than any other cat.
They are cat /dogs and lovingly protective😘👍
And they love tuna and salmon!!
I used to have a black cat back in the 70's and he had the strangest eyes. Most of the time his eyes were yellow but on a few occasions I actually saw them turn green. He was a great cat for sure. Very loving.
I guess its considered hazel eyes?
@@9ightdreamer I don't know. I suppose so. He was all black. Not a white spot on him at all. The only thing white on him were his teeth. He looked like a small panther.
My black cat's eyes used to change between green, yellow and gold when the seasons changed the first 4 years we had her.
Now they shift between yellow, gold, and orange.
My guy too! His eyes go from golden yellow to green....perhaps it's only just as I have been told ~ thrice in my life ~ "Holy Sh*t, your eyes are GOLDEN". My normal colour is GREEN.
Never met a black cat that wasn't super friendly and lovely. ❤️
It made me so sad to hear that black cats are used for ritual sacrifice and live Halloween decorations. I have a black cat, and he is one of the cutest and most affectionate cats I’ve had. I’ll definitely be keeping him indoors during this month, especially near Halloween. 🐈⬛🐈⬛🖤
Yes, it's best to keep him inside this month! 🖤
@@ThePurringJournal A wise move, indeed -- and this abuse associated with Halloween is yet another reason that many shelters will not adopt out black kittehs (also, oddly, white ones) during the month of October.
@@semperfi818 This is true, but my shelter knew me so allowed me to bring Sable home with Sienna, my Siamese on Oct. 15, 6 years ago. 😸
@@tammydammann1838 I'm so glad for all three of you; hugs to the kittehs, and all good to you.
You said what I wanted to say. I have had a black cat since 1998. I adopted a black kitten from the local Animal shelter and she lived for 19 years. She was such a beautiful and sweet soul and loved to be held like a baby on her back. After she died, I started looking for another black cat. And I wanted an adult cat. At a Pet Smart they had several adult cats but there was a lot of people there and I couldnt see all of the cats. My friend was able to see them and asked if I had seen the black cat she was carrying .. she is so beautiful... her coat is so soft and her face looks like my previous cat. I adopted her and she has been such a loving cat and loves to sleep on my chest. How can anyone could
I have a handsome black cat named Rogue. He is like a living teddy bear that loves hugs, kisses, snuggles and being carried around the house like a child.
Mine is the same way he loves sleeping on top of me every night as well. His name is Dracula.
I mentioned to my husband I wanted to get a black cat since they have always been my favorite. My birthday gift that year was a black kitten who was being fostered. Then I found out he had brothers. Long story short my 1 kitten turned into 3 black kittens. Shortly after bringing the boys home we were adopted by a black stray tom cat who also has a forever home now.
I don't get it why some people treated black cats badly whuch is they are God Creations. I am a Filipino from Philippines in Asia continent. My hair is straight so it meqns bad luck too? Hahaha funny people. This is racism in Cats. Black is shiny and Amazing color for Cats or even dogs. I have Pet Cat Black named Blackie very sweet a Male Cat. It's My profile picture in my facebook account To showcase My Pet Cat. Actuallt I have 2 cats. One is orange white coat cat name King King and the 2nd one is Blackie. I make fun of my cat when I turn off the lights and I pretend I didn't see him because blackie is invisible in the dark and I will say... blackie? Blackie? And Blackie will respond meow and I still pretend That I don't know where actually spot he s even I know hahahaha. My blackie is very clingy and sweet. Even when I came home and bring foodnin a platic wrap blackie knows oh actually both them king kinh they know it is food. If somebody say's to you Once a black Cat cross on your Path it is badluck? Nope. That's just a black cat about to go home or hunting or about to follow you. My Profile in this Google account as you see is My Pet Cat king king. The real Badluck are those people who are cruel to animals especially those animals are helpless.People who are mean and bitter in life wilk always be like that even in Animals. For Me People whonare bad are the real bad luck. Animals has there own defend mechanism natural instinct defending themselves but as human with highest intelligent than them we must understand and think 10 times not to hurt black cats a precious feline house panther .
Bless you!!😻
I have 4 black cats. Bruce,Selina, Onyx and Nightwing. Love them all. Nightwing has yellow and green eyes.
Nightwing ~ a wonderful name and a fae name. i love it- it’s so mythical. 🧚🏻🐈⬛🐾🐈⬛🧚🏾♂️
@Sparkling Cyanide I guess you know why Nightwing is called Nightwing and not by his secret identity.
You are lucky!
Beautiful names!!
I love my Black Cat Kateri.
IMHO It's unlucky NOT to have a black cat
I agree 👍👍💯 Although I never had a black cat ,I used to baby sit a black cat & almost adopted one ,but couldn't as I was so handful with my two cats & dogs !! But both were great cats ,beautiful black 🐈⬛ 💖💜🥁🐉🎤🎵🎶🐈🐈⬛💕💞

I've had three black cats and they are wonderful. They think they are invisible.
when it's dark they ARE invisible.:)
My black cat is always the one who initiates play fighting with the others by pouncing on them when they're not looking
@@Catman66 Yeah, tell me about it. I know what it's like stumbling in the dark with a black cat that likes to be underfoot.
Definitely have too watch we’re u step at night especially when u share ur house with black cats. Lol
Oh my god ! My cat thinks he is invisible too ! ( I mean he spots any black think in the house from clothes to furniture and sits/sleeps/hide on it ! Sometimes he literally is Invisible !) Also at night of course !
I had a black cat. His name was Desi. He was a very loving, playful, attentive all around awesome cat. It's sad how people can be so ridiculous over a cat that has black fur.
People are ridiculous about many things!
God bless you and God bless Desi in cat heaven.
Fun Fact: Black cats have such soft smooth cool fur and have the most adorable eyes.
True ! I never touched a cat as soft as my black cat ! Plus he shines !
My Marly is so pretty! Her eyes are so beautiful
My Panther is so sweet and loving.
Even when my black cat is filthy, she's smooth and soft.
I just wish she'd stat out of the tree sap while hunting.
My black cat, Manus (Father of the Abyss, named by my youngest son) was born to a Tortoiseshell female and, in sunlight, he has a "halo" of glowing orange hair.
He also has a spot of white under each armpit, and a curved cresent of white in his crotch area....these areas are unseen but for when he goes upside down...
It looks like a "Smiley Face".
Super cute.
AND HIS "BEANS"!
Black cat beans (toe pads) are irresistibly adorable.
Almost every person in my family has a black cat. They're nothing but lucky to us all. They're all the most amazing cats I've known.
Black cats are amazing. We've had a black cat for 10 years and she's the most loving softest cat there is.

Watched this video with my black cat laying over my arm he didn't stop purring the whole time and still is! Lol
He's such an affectionate and sweet boy. He chose me when I adopted him at 8 weeks, he is now 8 yrs old.
We have one of the most beautiful and sweet Black fur babies. She loves to cuddle with me. Her name is Spookee (aka Keekee). She came to us on Halloween night 2019. That’s why we named her Spookee.
What a cute name! Thank you for giving a black cat a PAWsome home. 😻
@@ThePurringJournal You’re welcome. The honor its ours! Keekee is such a beautiful girl.
I have same exact story and named my cat spooky
@@gunnerapple808 when and how did your fur baby come to you?
@@jacksharples5415 2019 on Halloween a woman was taking it off to he woods. 4 weeks old and I couldn't have that so I took it. Still have him. Solid black. So what better name than spooky. He hisses at everyone that comes in. Lol
My mom had a black cat named Sarah. Sarah adored my mom and tapped my mom's hand with a paw for some of the food on the table.
Sarah adored me too, and she crossed my path once but I didn't get any bad luck.
Not long after we’d moved into our place, we heard a very loud meowing in the middle of the night. I couldn’t find the source. My daughter found this tiny black kitten under a wheeled garbage bin. She couldn’t have been more than 5 weeks old. Still had blue eyes. Now she’s two. The other two cats we already had are now ten. Guess who rules the roost? Yep. With an iron paw. She takes the highest perch on the cat tower, and while she surveys her domain, still gives dirty looks.
And we adore this little beast!
It’s likely not stink eye, it’s the contrast of yellow green eyes against black that makes her seem like she’s doing that. Your anthropomorphizing her. (Attributing human qualities that aren’t there)
If you toss that idea you’ll find she’s just a relaxed cat.
@@elizabethclaiborne6461 Sweetpea, I’ve had cats for 52 years. Fostered, or caught-fixed-released, unknown numbers of small house carnivores. This, along side being a loving, lucky “owner” of several long-lived kitty cats. I know how their eyes work. I know what “anthropomorphism” is. And one of the best parts of being a cat mom, is mixing in a little bit of extra character. Although they hardly need it…🙀🥺😺♥️🐿
I love that you want to help people understand their cat, and what makes it tick/purr. It’s a noble effort. I hope that you have a beautiful day 🌞🕊
@@elizabethclaiborne6461 oh, and as an aside, she most definitely gives stink eye. 😉

I adopted a tuxedo about one year ago from a local shelter. She was said to pee-marking her territory due to stress so she was only given to someone who didn't have any other pets.... And to be honest adopting her was the best choice I ever made, she's so calm and affectionate ever since she got comfortable around me (peeing outside the litter box never happened either), and I love her so much that I'll never give her away ever again 💜
Actually, in recent decades the negative superstition about black cats crossing a street became popular in Russia too! But still, thanks for the video, very charming one. I adore black cats so much! ❤️
Me too.
My black cat was in the shelter for two years before I adopted her.... She was there so long because she was black and yet she's the sweetest cat ever and gets along great with my male cat and three year old daughter
The only bad thing about black cats is that sometimes their dark coats work too well. I have accidentally kicked my kitty a couple times getting out of bed to use the bathroom because I didn't see him. I feel horrible about it every time.
I had to install a bunch of motion sensing lights along my stairs, so we wouldn't trip over our black kitties in the night and go tumbling down the stairs.
My family had many black or mostly black cats over the decades. They are and were absolutely sweethearts. My current black cat has green eyes and our vet is always praising him for it. I was always wondering why, but maybe it's because most black eyes have apparently golden eyes, as I've just learned now :D I never was as close with a cat, as I am with him. I'm always joking we live in symbiosis ^^
Green eyes are so beautiful! And cats are the best companions, aren't they? 😻
@@ThePurringJournal Oh definitely! I can't imagine live without cats 😻
@@katzenlady5339 Nor can I, and not only because they're the best and safest antidepressants known. 😊🐱💜👍🏽
My Salem has green eyes too! I love that 🐱!🖤🖤🖤🖤
When i took him to the spay/neuter clinic with his gray sister, i got all kinds of positive comments about him, but none for her. The most often comment was, "he has beautiful eyes". Since they both had the same feral parents, i found that odd that his sister was gray, and both him and his parents are black. My late wife passed away from diabetes last year, and i have photos of him sleeping near her in her final 2 years. For some strange reason, she could not get affectionately close to him, but i will never know why.
I have two adopted and neutered house panthers that bring me joy and happiness every day!
I just lost my black cat at age 16 to cancer. She had green eyes and ruled by home. I'll miss Princess.
So sorry for your loss.
Black cats are beautiful
I adopted a six-year-old black cat from the shelter 3 1/2 years ago and she is wonderful. She is very intuitive, and to think no one wanted her. She was at the time the longest resident at the shelter at about a year and a half. I can't believe no one wanted her. Her huge purr and great personality are wonderful.
How loving of you. I'm certain your kindness was aPURRciated
I have a black kitten and I’ve named her Salem 😭 she’s an absolute witch though but I still love her
I love my companion he is so friendly charming. He has been good luck for me, and is a great friend...I gave up.on humans after a mild stroke I had 5 yrs ago but only had him a year next month.
Great channel 👏

Salutations 🐾
I'm hoping to adopt two brothers soon! A couple of 'teenager panthers!'
I have 3 black cats at my house (one passed, sadly) and my family says we might get another one when we move. On the plus note, I am born on October 27, the same day as the National black cat appreciation day.
Epic video it is pawsome 🐱😻😻
Yes !!! I agree 👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎵🎶🐈🐈⬛💕💞
Very !!🐱🐱
I have only ever had black cats. I absolutely love them, and they're my favorite. There so cute, and pretty, and mystical, and mine have only ever been sweet (mostly lol because cats). Idk, I know black cats have brought protection, pure love, and healing to my life.
I've had black cats all my life and yes we always kept them inside during the month of October.
I love black cats, i have a tomcat now black as ink and he’s a lovable cat,he is a great mouser and sadly other critters, my other black cat was female and lived until 17 and she was very attached to me , in fact she acted more like a dog following me everywhere.
I hate that stupid superstition about black cats, it's stupid and causes misery and suffering to black cats.... I feel sorry for the poor cats. I do NOT believe that worthless superstition in anyway, i love Black cats and kudos to everyone who also believe otherwise
Could not agree more. I share my home with 2 short hair black cats. They are amazing cats
@@kathleengivant-taylor2277 besides just like all the other cats, they deserve love and positive attention too
I love all cats but black cats are just so pretty
@@sorreldislikespotatoes9882 they are stunning, beautiful
Every black cat that I have ever known or owned has been a complete and total sweetheart.
I had a beautiful Manx, black cat that lived for 22 years, and was a loving cat that traveled everywhere with me. She was very special and I loved her very much. She was an adoptee and I named her Daisy. I also adopted a male at the same time who lived for 18 years, he was a grey tabby and I named him Donald. I had both neutered early. They were indoor cats, and adorable, loving cats!💗💗

We had a stray Tortie adopt us. She had her kittens in my flower bed. Three of them were black. We were going to try to get them adopted (as we already had 3 cats in the house) but after learning about how they are treated we decided to keep them. My sister has one of them and we kept the other two. They are the best cats we have ever had. We love them so much 🖤
I also adopted a male* black cat and his female* littermate, a Tortoise shell, from the local SPCA.
They were of course neutered/spayed prior to adoption. Their mom was a Tortoise shell KITTEN who conceived ~ the vet stated ~ on her first heat.
The idiots who owned her dumped her off at the SPCA when she was in labour...which was probably for the best as the staff helped her immediately. The kittens needed a lot of assistance as the mom was too young to know how to care for them..
It was a litter of 4 female Torties and 2 black boys.
I'm so glad one of the two tortie females was snatched up by a prior visitor who purportedly spent 5 minutes choosing a kitten. My son and I were there three hours....I attempted to talk the staff into giving the 5 min shoppers the other Tortie kitten (as the three were physically well nigh identical) but they said no, that would be unethical.
I am so grateful for that intervention. That fortuitous accident Lead me to choose the high energy, super playful "squirrelly as heck" BLACK littermate.
He is the best cat. I'm so lucky someone wanted the quiet little siskit
My Percy is my shadow. She follows me everywhere. I think she gets lonely when I’m at work, so I am planning to adopt another black cat to be her fur-sibling. I do notice that most of the cats up for adoption are black, likely to be the last to be adopted due to these ridiculous superstitions. Black cats are so very affectionate and loving with sweet personalities💕😻💕
I love my black kitty Shadow, got him from the streets back in Oct 2016! I feel lucky to have him.
Thank you for making this lovely video! Addressing myths and folklore about these beauties is most timely for the month of October. It is such a shame that they have picked up so many a negative stigmas. Some of our sweetest cats have been ebony in color!!!! We love your channel. Meow!
I’ve 2 black and white cats they’re my girls/daughters to me I love them dearly Thanks for the video My godmother has a black cat
Black cats are such beautiful animals, it’s a shame that some people do awful things to them. Breaks my heart.
I’ve had my black cat with me for 10 years now. He got me through my parents divorce, moving cross country, high school, and college. During my intense depressive episodes he sits with me and comforts me (even if it means his coat is covered in tears and snot after).
Awww❤
My mother had a black cat she named, "Circe", after the sorceress in the, "Odyssey". She and that cat were inseparable, beautiful cat, sleek silky coat. My daughter has an all black cat named, "Elda". She is black but with a white undercoat, never have seen that before. She appeared on our doorstep as a kitten after a hurricane. Still going strong at age 18 now!
After volunteering for a large cat rescue, I’ve learned that black cats (and dogs for that matter) are the last to be adopted. 😩
I have 3 gorgeous black cats. I did have 4 but sadly one passed away fairly young with kidney failure a couple of years ago. The only problem I have with black cats is I also have a black sofa so before I sit down, I check to make sure I'm not going to sit on one of my black cats. All of my cats have been adopted (well, failed foster actually). One of them, Kira who came to me as an 8 month old abused, neglected kitten now wakes me up every morning with a soft paw tapping my face. So beautiful especially as when I first got her she was terrified of us. Wicked owners surrendered her, riddled with worms, covered in fleas and sores, grossly underweight and full of cat 'flu. It took many trips to the vet to sort out her health problems and she wasn't spayed either. As soon as my vet gave her the all-clear, we had her spayed and microchipped even though she is an indoor cat only. The turnaround in her was so heart-warming and she is now the sweetest, most loving cat you can imagine - and mischievous too. I was only supposed to foster her but after all she'd been through, there was no way I could have parted with her. I also have another 7 cats of various colours. All except 2 are failed fosters and all are loved and cherished members of my family.
I found this black cat sleeping on a pile of cardboards in my living room, since then he's been living with us and gotta say I've been the most happiest ever since. He's such a good friend. I love him.
I lost my black kitty recently. She was a amazing cat
Jiji is my black cat and the love of my life. I am lucky to have him.
We love black cats in Italy, many of my friends have back cats. Thats an old form of superstition which still may exist in small villages but not in general
I have a black cat. Her name is Onyx. She is so loveable and loves to sit in my lap. She's part of our family. She's a rescue.
The FIV one was most surprising to me. Thank you for making these videos!
Thank you for the spotlight on black cats 🐈⬛🖤
Indeed !!! And very timely ,wasn't it !? Halloween is coming ! 👍🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛💜🥁🐉🎤🎵🎶💕💞
@@spark_6710 Exactly! 🎃
@@mdh1196 Yes ! I love Halloween 🎃 it's my passion !! Lol. But,every Halloween, I can't help myself thinking ,wondering if any poor black cats being mistreated or hurt, or worse killed !! I pray for them every year ! Thanks for your reply !! 👍💜🥁🐉🎵🎤🎶🐈🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🎃💞
@@spark_6710 Black cats are considered lucky and cherished in other countries. Wish the U.S. 🇺🇸 would catch up. 🐈⬛🧡
@@mdh1196 I know ,right !!? It's so ~silly to discriminate anything ,either humans or animals by it's colours of skin or furs or eyes !!! We humans need to evolve intellectually, spiritually more !!! Some people are still remaining in the medieval times ,or cave man Era in this world & so hard to get thru them !! 😫😩💜🥁🐉🎤🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🎃🎵🎶💕💞
When i was younger I adopted 2 black cats, sisters from the same litter so they could keep each other company. I was a Goth so they could shed on my clothes and it wouldn't matter. They loved ping pong balls.
I must get my Yasu a ping pong ball. What a good idea 👏
Black cats are the most affectionate and talkative ones I've ever owned. I love black cats! They are also the last to get adopted from shelters. So if you love cats, go adopt a black cat if you can.
i adopted a black kitten at the shelter & it was his last day there until he was going to be put down from everyone choosing the other kitties over him. i wish i could say i saved a beautiful soul but in reality max saved mine, he’s curled up with me as we speak. i fall in love with him everyday & i honestly don’t know how i could ever repay him for being my best friend
My mom loves black cats and it rubbed off on my sisters and me. I adopted a black cat a few years ago, and my family has owned 5 thus far, all rescues. In fact, one of our local shelters has a special event for adopting black cats. The adoption fees are significantly lower and it allows their beautiful black kitties to find homes.
Another great video you've done !!! ✔👍👍👍I am so sad that they're the least adopted cats from shelter here in the U.S. !!! And the 2nd is orange cat !!! Just doesn't make any sense at all as they're the most easy going & super duper affectionate !!! I was just talking about this reg.both clour cats on Lex & Cinnabon channel ,literally several minutes ago !! Thank you so much for doing this video !!! Especially before the Halloween my favourite holiday of the year ! I hope videos like this will help people to get rid of silly fixed & obsolete mind & get educated ,better ,help black cats getting adopted !!! They are so smart & beautiful & affectionate & never make troubles !!! My heart aches for them being misunderstood & underappreciated or hated ,mistreated & abused !!! 💜💜💜💜🥁🐉🎤🎵🎶🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈🐈🐈💕💞
Love Cinnabon and Lex's channel and Bean cool too
@@EmilyMakeupQueen Yes ,they're all adorable ,aren't they !!? Lol.👍💜🥁🐉🎤💞
Hi FURiend! We've been wanting to make this video for a while, but purposely held off until October (knowing that's when more people search about black cats). We hope it spreads the word about how PAWsome black cats are, and how they need extra protection around Halloween. By watching and sharing this topic, you are helping to get the word out. So thank you so much for your support! 🐈💕
@@ThePurringJournal Hello !! I AGREE !!! 👍 I thought your video was FABULOUS & WONDERFUL !!! 👍👍👍 The timing & all ! I get worried of black cats around my most favourite holiday of the year HALLOWEEN 🎃 I am subbed to so many cat channels ,I watch Lex & Cinnabon ,it's an orange cat & Lex adopted him & his vlogs show how they met & how he adopted this semi feral cat suddenly started coming to his huge backyard like a wood / forest !! And their daily life & how their friendship have been growing !! They have a neighbour's black cat Bean who comes to their house ,but not welcomed by Cinnabon ! Lol. I think I'm gonna mention of this video there & other channel who babysit a black cat named Olive !! They're gonna ( the viewers ) love this video & your channel I believe !!! Your channel is fabulous !!! Thank you so much for your reply !! 💖💜💜💜💜🥁🐉🎤🎵🎶🐈⬛🐈💕💞
@@EmilyMakeupQueen Hey ! Forgot to say ! Hoping to see you on Lex & Cinnabon !! 🙋♀️💜🥁🐉🎤🎵🎶🐈⬛🐈💕💞
My loving black cat is 17 years old. She is very loyal. l am hoping she will live beyond 20 yrs.I can’t imagine life without her.
I've had four black cats and they've been my favorites. They seem to keep choosing me. I love ALL cats, but the black ones have a special place in my heart.
I absolutely adore my black cat Stickers. He’s just beautiful and has such a quirky personality.
My kaalu. He was with me in my despair. He licked my tears 😢. He felt my sorrow. May my kaalu be in luxury wherever you are. My baby I miss you. You deserve the best
I lost my baby Angel a few months ago. He was 17. I still miss him so much. I found out after he passed that he had started getting dementia. My baby always recognized me and greeted me. I work from home and when I needed a break, I would go have cuddle minutes with him. He figured out how to lay on my phone so I couldn't hear the timer when break was over.
having owned 3 and still own 1 black cats over the last 28 years, it is a rule that we will always own a black cat until we are too old to care for one anymore.
I loved every one of my cats and found their loss very painful. I always wish that I still had them today.
i had a black cat when i was younger, his name was Cosmo. my family believed that he was actually a melanistic orange tabby bc when you saw him in a certain light, you could see orange "ghost stripes"! he was a very beautiful, sweet cat and lived till the ripe old age of 19. he will forever be missed. :' )
My black cat had a similar orange halo due to his Tortoiseshell mummy.
I LOVE BLACK CATS! I have had many black kitties throughout my life. They are beautiful! I find all kitties loving and wonderful!
I had a black cat once.
He was smart AND crazy!
Be prepared for an interesting pet if you ever decide to get a black cat...
I had a black cat once. I had him for 13 years, and he was an outdoor kitty! Oh, how I loved that cat. I will always love black cats! Black cats always remind about my little friend. Whenever he would cross my path, he would not give me any bad luck. No! He gave me love. Halloween is the last holiday I think about whenever I remember my sweet black cat. Satan? Forget about it!! What about love? That is what I always think about whenever it comes to black cats. They are just as sweet and affectionate as other cats. You gotta love them! 🐱🖤💕
I love all cats but have a special place in my heart for Black cats. I currently have a wonderful all black female cat that is a house cat and never goes outside. She is 15 years old and 15 pounds. She's not fat but large. She is so loving and so much company. I can't imagine my life without a cat.
More people should watch this.
Black cats are my favorite.. beautiful
I love my black cat Shady, he"s extremelysmart and acts as my bidyguard.
I think black is the best color for cats! My mini panther is laying by my monitor as I write this. I love the big guy!
I have a black cat and he is just adorable! Like a black panther, the most shiny soft coat.
I love him. 💕💕💕💕
I rescued a black mother and her kittens. Then her kitten eventually gave me a black kitten. I couldn't be more pleased. My 2 black cats are incredible!
My two current cats are completely black - no idea where their breeding came from! I am Irish, however, and we do think of them as lucky, rather than unlucky.
Owned three black cats (one passed early this year) and I will say that thwy have been the best of friends and family i have ever had. Ozzy, the one that passed, was being fostered by my older sister and he decided he’d adopt us as his family. I miss him so much… My son Ebony and newest family member Kitsunea couldn’t make me any more happy. I hope to adopt more cats in the future, (especially if they’re black kitties)
Also y’all try to adopt male cats, they stay in shelters longer than females do :(
Sorry for your loss, my baby Yoda passed away this June from heart failure,he was 13.. I still can't get over it. Hopefully someday I will find another like him😔
@@mariemorgan7759 im sorry for your loss as well. They will always be with us, and with as special as they make them I’m sure you’ll find another amazing friend again. What made you name him Yoda?
@@rose44491 thank you for your kind reply. I named him Yoda because when I found him as a stray kitten he had a bad ear mite infection that caused the fur on his ears and head to fall,so he looked like the fictional character. He always was obsessed with me , following me everywhere which makes it much harder to get over. Take care and blessings to you and your kitties.🌹
@@mariemorgan7759 awwe that’s awesome you rescued him from the streets. And of course❤️ you take care too.
