When someone mentions black cats, what are the first things you think of? You wouldn’t be alone if your mind immediately jumped to something negative.
Western culture has traditionally associated black felines with witchcraft or seen them as bad luck symbols (the opposite of white cat breeds or quite different from orange cat breeds).
Besides being some of the most beautiful kitties out there, black cats’ intelligence and friendliness mean they make wonderful companions.
These puffballs are one of the top kitties to own because of their intensely loving and gentle nature. This warmth reflects in the big amber eyes typical of black Persian cats.
These sweet souls have short, curly fur and large pointed ears that make them one of the best-known big-eared cat breeds.
The wavy-coated Devon Rex is your ideal feline friend if you want a cat that offers a dog-like sense of affection and devotion. Their intensely loyal nature means they’ll keep you company all day long.
