When it comes to adopting a furry friend from a shelter, one group of animals often gets overlooked – black cats.
These enchanting felines are frequently passed over in favor of their more colorful counterparts, primarily due to long-standing superstitions and misconceptions. However, black cats have so much to offer as loving companions, and they deserve a chance to find their forever homes just like any other cat.
The stigma surrounding black cats dates back centuries, with folklore often associating them with bad luck or witchcraft. While these superstitions are baseless, they still persist today. However, it’s crucial to remember that cats’ fur color has nothing to do with their personality or the love they can offer. Black cats are just as unique and lovable as cats of any other color. Their personalities are as diverse as the rainbow, and they can be affectionate, playful, and loyal companions.
If you’re considering adopting a cat or kitten, The Cat House (TCH) is Lincoln’s only no-kill cat shelter and adoption facility. You can visit TCH at 3633 O St. during open hours on Tuesday or Thursday between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m., or on Sunday between 1:30 p.m. and 4 p.m. They are dedicated to helping cats find loving homes, regardless of their fur color.
