I've never understood it either. But some people say they look to plain or
they all look alike. I personally love the sleek shiny black cat look. And I
focus much more on presonality anyway (as do the best adopters).

It actually beats the heck out of me! I'm guessing there is still a stigma
with some humans about black cats and dark energy, witchcraft and the like.
Superstitious crap is my guess. I love black cats, but they are hard to get
adopted most places. I went out on a call to rescue this adorable little,
maybe 5 week old solid black kitten that someone had dumped near the sales
office of a new construction development. At the time I had a very sick
fiv/felv kitty and I couldn't take the chance of fostering the little one. I
had a heck of a time finding a rescue that would take this little angel in.

out of curiosity - why would a cat have a strike against her for being black?

Hi Nan, I took the liberty of changing the subject line of your post to
better indicate what it's about. What a little love this girl sounds like!
Poor angel on her own with no front claws trying to get into the safety a
human's car. It makes me want to go and scoop her up myself, (I won't even
mention that to Bruce or my overcrowded household). Who has the cat right
now? Has anyone posted flyers at the campground in case she accidently
became lost from her people? Someone might be heartbroken and looking for
her as I type this. Are you checking local papers for lost ads? Has someone
posted a found ad in the paper near where the campgrounds are? They should
also file a found report with the local animal shelter and ask if anyone has
reported her missing to the shelter.
She does have a strike against her because she's black, (I personally love
black cats), but she has quite a rescue story and that might help to find her
a home. The very best to you and this sweet baby, please let us know what
happens to her. Hey... Wasn't there just someone very nice on this list
that was thinking about adopting a neg cat??? Who was that? Wasn't it
Marissa?? Marissa, did you end up adopting more cats yet?? Nina Nan
