WITH Halloween fast approaching, the streets are filled with decorations featuring witches and black cats. Unfortunately, these sleek, dark felines have long been victims of unfounded myths. Historically, black cats were associated with witches, leading to centuries of superstition and unfair treatment.


Debunking Halloween Superstitions

Despite the persistent belief that black cats are in danger during Halloween, experts have debunked this myth. A 2007 National Geographic article clarified that there’s no substantial evidence supporting the idea that these cats are specifically targeted during this spooky season.


Helping Animals Almanzora: Advocates for black cats

This Halloween, Helping Animals Almanzora is challenging those misconceptions by shining a spotlight on black cats in need of homes. Located in Arboleas, Almeria, this dedicated animal rescue organization is promoting the adoption of eight lovable black cats, each with its own unique personality. They believe these kitties deserve love, not fear.

Sometimes he can have a digestive problem when he eats wet food
but it’s effectively treated with antibiotics. Scraggy and two other
black cats up for adoption (Findlay Binks) were pets, but they
were all abandoned on the street by their owner when she moved
to a different country.
He will be neutered before adoption.

cats (Scraggy Findlay who who are also up for adoption) when his
owner moved away from Spain.
