Submitted by Steve on 13:59, 27th Oct, 2015 | 0

Black cats have had a mixed reaction for centuries with many people believing them a bad omen even in 2015.

Today is National Black Cat Day, a day to raise awareness of the many black and white cats waiting for homes in rehoming centres.

At the GSPCA it takes on average much longer for a black cat to find a home

This Halloween there are black cats in many homes in Guernsey, but the GSPCA have more black cats than any other at the Animal Shelter.

At the GSPCA 50% of the cats are black or black and white that are in for rehoming, welfare reasons or stray.

Once again the GSPCA have a Halloween full of black cats.

As seems the trend across animal welfare organisations the black cat certainly isn't the lucky colour of the feline world.

Currently nearly half the stray and unwanted adult cats at the GSPCA are either black or black and white and some have been looking for a new home for over a year.

Submitted by GSPCA on 10:18, 26th Oct, 2011 | 2

This Halloween there are black cats in many homes in Guernsey but the GSPCA have more black cats than any other at the animal shelter.

 

The staff at the GSPCA care for many black cats every year and have noticed that they often get passed by.  Pumpkin pictured with his black and white brother Pie were born at the shelter and have been looking for homes for over 3 months now.  Beauty their mum who is also a black cat also really needs a loving new home.
