Friday, October 27th, is National Black Cat Day.
Don’t be superstitious! October 27 may be National Black Cat Day, but it is all about celebrating the beauty of these sleek creatures. While this time of year black cats may decorate many thresholds for Halloween and windows for spooky decor, these felines deserve the love and attention just as much as their tabby counterparts. Old notions have given these furry critters a bad reputation. National Black Cat Day is about turning that reputation around.
Show your mini black panther some extra special love today!
Saturday, October 28th is National Pit Bull Awareness Day.
