Some Like It BLACK

Has your cat ever run into any troubles just because of the colour of its fur? I hope not. I'm not really Puss Black's owner and I haven't asked DD so I don't know. I have however heard of how black cats are difficult to find good homes; and how they become potential victims of mischief especially around Halloween.

In a culture that boasts high tech stuff from aerospace technology to daily life's innovations like Skype and Wi-Fi, it's funny to know there are still people who associate black cats with the wrongs of life. Bad luck, epidemic, sickness, death and witchery are all but some superstitions surrounding the black cats. On the other hand, there are some others who believe black cats will bring about good luck, fortune and prosperity.

Superstitions aside, it's comforting to know there are also people who only treasure black cats as loving members of their families. Some like it BLACK, it's so good to know.
