National Black Cat Day - could you help one of our many black cats find its lucky forever home this Halloween

Submitted by Steve on 08:54, 27th Oct, 2016 | 0

Black cats have had a mixed reaction for centuries with many people believing them a bad omen even in 2016.

Despite each year at the GSPCA and many other charities promoting black cats in need of homes they continue to be the main colour of cat that is often skipped by when new adoptees are looking to adopt a cat.

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