National Black Cat Day is a time to do away with all those crazy superstitions that these felines are symbols of witchcraft or bad luck and start seeing them as the elegant and affectionate little creatures that they are.
While it's true that black cats are often viewed as being a sign of impending doom, in some corners of the world, they're actually considered to be good luck. In the south of France, for example, people believe that a black cat that’s treated well and respected will bestow good fortune on whoever owns it.
