This Black Cat Is So Adorable And Quirky He’s Taking Over Instagram (22 New Pics)

Meet MeonJi, a charming black Scottish fold cat who has captured the hearts of many with his unique appearance and captivating personality. This adorable kitty is not just another black cat—MeonJi is so dark, he almost seems to melt into the shadows. His sleek, inky fur and mesmerizing eyes make him a master of disguise, often blending perfectly with his surroundings. But don't let his stealthy skills fool you; MeonJi is full of character and loves to show off his playful side.

"I really didn't like black cats very much. But ever since meeting my cat, I've completely fallen in love with black cats, even despite the fact that I did buy Meon Ji.

So far I am so happy with the attention we are receiving, but I want people around the world to know that all cats are cute, regardless of color," MeonJi’s owner Kim Aerin told Bored Panda.

Despite their beauty and loving personalities, black cats often get a bad reputation. They make up a significant portion of shelter cats in the US, which means there are plenty of black cats waiting for homes.

Kim wasn’t originally interested in black cats, but MeonJi changed her mind. "Now, I think they're the best!"

Black cats have long been associated with superstition and folklore. In many cultures, they are unfortunately linked to bad luck and witchcraft. This belief persisted over centuries and across various cultures, reinforcing a negative image of black cats.

Despite these unfounded superstitions, black cats make wonderful pets and deserve just as much love and care as any other cat. By adopting a black cat, you not only gain a loyal and affectionate companion but also contribute to dispelling the myths and negative stereotypes that have unfairly burdened these animals for too long. So, if you're in the market for a new feline friend, consider adopting a black cat—they might just be the perfect addition to your family.
