I used today’s nice sunny day for a walk, and as I strolled through the village on the abandoned roof, I saw this cute black cat tucking in the sun. He was very friendly and looked at me curiously and then turned around and continued lying down. In some cultures, black cats are subject to superstition and bring luck or misfortune. Traditional beliefs about black cats vary from culture to culture. With us, a black cat is a symbol of disaster if it crosses the road in front of you. I don’t believe it because I’m not superstitious.

Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear Elenka…but we only have something in common
I used to be more superstitious. but then when I have Eclipse coming around for food, and he is black I feel blessed to help him. I try to think differently now.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear friend…
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear Tas…I’m not superstitious and I don’t believe in these rumors … maybe it’s really about that?
To me, too … she just looked at me curiously when I took her picture
She was very curious what was going on
Yes, black cats bring misfortune but they are cute and fashionable.
Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear friend….I only know it, I’m not superstitious and I don’t believe it
Adore watching cats, and, of course, black cats too!!! They are so nice creatures, so I can’t understand how they can bring misfortune.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear Anastasia….i like them too …. i’m not superstitious and i don’t believe in these rumors
I don’t mess with black cats. The song “Black Cat” by AC/DC was a rock classic though.
Thanks for watching and kind comment, my friend….I like them though …. the black cat is a real rock piece
Cats always find a place to enjoy themselves.
Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear Vidocka…this one really found an interesting place for sunbathing
Cats are very resourceful
I totally agree with you, dear Vida
I never saw black cats as bad luck but they bring good luck as far as I am concerned
I had a friend that was very superstitious, I was amazed as my family never were .
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear Pamela….I’m not superstitious either, and I don’t believe these rumors
I am not superstitious. I like black cats and this one is beautiful!
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear Ileana….I’m not superstitious either, and this cat is really cute
Awe, he was saying hi to you! Lovely cat, I love black cats, but yes they are considered bad luck in the US. I know they are not.
Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear Kim…also they say that they bring misfortune only I do not believe it …. she looked at me curiously and kindly when I was painting it
Yes he did. And that rub was just for you. He was saying you are a nice guy!
Oh thanks for the nice compliment, my dear friend
the connection of black cats and witches in lore makes for an interesting superstition.
I don’t buy into things like that.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear friend…..I also do not believe in these fairy tales
it feels like an easy way to blame cats!
You’re right …. and I don’t know where that came from
they were affiliated with witches but more I don’t know
Maybe it really, dear friend … important what we think
He is such a cute looking fella, hanging precariously from the roof. No I am not superstitious.
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear Dawn…he was curiously looking down at me from the roof
That is a very adorable cat. No matter what they say about black cats I do not believe in superstition.
Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear Sandra….I’m not superstitious either, and I don’t believe in these fairy tales
I think it is a universal belief that black cats bring misfortunes and disasters. It is a common belief in Africa. I am of that not superstitious opinion.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear friend…..they also say that a black cat brings misfortune even if it crosses the road … I don’t believe it
That is a strange belief. I don’t know why they don’t say that of black dogs.
It really is a strange belief … I don’t know where it came from and who remembered it
there are enough legitimate things to fear, we don’t need to make up more things to be afraid of
Thanks for watching and kind comment, my friend….i totally agree with you … i also don’t believe in these rumors
it just doesn’t make any sense
Everyone can have their own thoughts
just because you CAN do something doesn’t mean you SHOULD
I understand you, der friend
I have heard about this black cat superstition but I do not believe
Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear Grace…I also do not believe in these rumors
Such a beautiful cat! I have had black cats in the past, they bring joy and good luck.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear Ellie….I also like black cats so much that they say whatever they want
Of course I am not superstitious. I have a black cat, the Dude and he is like a teddy bear. This cat is beautiful too.
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear Carol….I like black cats too
