Black cats, for me there is no other kind.

by Woody

To be scrupulously honest with myself I would have to admit that I'm every bit as superstitious as those that think black cats are evil or bad luck. You see for me black cats are the only kind, I've never had any other kind of cat.

Black cats are majestic and to me they are magical. People like cats of all kinds, the tiger ones, flat faced Persians, Siamese, white cats, red cats, that's alright, they like them because they say they look cute. I don't know what cute is exactly. I don't think most people think that black cats look cute.

I say black cats are ace and I don't think that there is any misfortune from them either. Not going to say they are going to bring everything that you want in to your life, but for me they are more than a little lucky.

If others don't like black cats that's alright with me. They can go and like any kind of cat they like. If others are superstitious about black cats that's their mistake, but it's up to them. It's the ones that want to hurt a majestic cat just because they harbor some superstition about it that I can't tolerate or understand.

I'm very glad to say that there ain't no one ever hurt one of mine. I keep them indoors mostly, just on occasion let them prowl around the back yard while I watch. There are holes and gaps in that back fencing, they don't even try to go through. When it's time for to go inside I just pick them up and carry them in, they don't complain.

Black cats, for me there is no other kind.
