How To Celebrate National Black Cat Day October 27th

Are Black Cats Unlucky?
When it comes to superstitions, one of the oldest is that crossing paths with a black cat will bring bad luck. The dark-colored felines have also been folded into modern Halloween symbols, giving them an unfair reputation for being bad. They’re good luck in many cultures. In Scotland, it’s lucky for a black cat to arrive at your doorstep. In Japan, black cats are thought to help single women find their soulmate. A lot of superstitions out there, but most of the world acknowledges black cats as cute—not creepy.
