I have no idea why black cats have a stigma, unless those who do not like then are just being racist. We have had a number over the years and find them to be loving and great friends. I think the one we have now is my muse. He comes over when I am writing on the computer and stands in front of me, sitting on the keyboard. I have to butt heads with him and pet him and he will go and sleep on my part of the bed. Cats are great, they have a special knowledge which they can share. We have another cat, Lilly, who sits in a chair like a human. She shares this chair with me and I can ask her to move and she does most of the time. If she does not want to move she tells me to get another chair. Lots of love shared with a number of graceful creatures over my life. All from either the humane society or by just having them show up at the door. Cats are always welcomed.

She's a beauty!

THIS is why cats are so amazing!

I love that you have a cat who can do work with the kids. That is so awesome!

Also she is an ambassador for black cats! I've had 4 black cats out of six cats in my lifetime. (ok two were tuxies but they count!). Obviously black cats are cool!
