Why people don't want black cats: Reasons that may surprise you

Black cats undoubtedly have beauty and cuteness, which makes them great companions for anyone. Despite these positive qualities, UAportal told us that there are several reasons why potential cat owners try to stay away from these graceful and mysterious pets.

Unreasonable prejudices

One of the main reasons that keep people from getting black cats is the prevalence of unfounded superstitions and prejudices that accompany them. In various beliefs, black cats are associated with bad luck, evil, and even death.

Such beliefs lead some to believe that a black cat in the house attracts bad luck and potentially dark forces. Unfortunately, these unfounded superstitions make people hesitant to get these cute pets.

Unreasonable prejudices

Additionally, potential breeders or lovers of black cats may avoid these beautiful cats because of unfounded prejudices. Some people mistakenly believe that black cats are difficult to sell, questioning their marketability.

As a result, fewer black cats are adopted in shelters than their counterparts of other colors. However, it is important to understand that the color of the coat does not affect the animal's temperament, as black cats can be as friendly and sweet as their peers.
