Black cats have had a very undeserved bad rap. They are also often the last to be adopted from shelters. So I was so pleased to see this stunning art work at Little High. I’m a big fan of black cats, having had the honour of a lovely black cat adopting us a few years ago. She turned up in our garden one day and we quickly realised she was very thin and obviously lost. We tried for weeks to find an owner but she wasn’t microchipped. We had many people think she was possibly their cat, but she was always the wrong age or gender. The vet suspects she was abandoned and may even have had kittens at just 5 or 6 months of age. Based on some of her responses we suspect she had been mistreated and she was also very anxious and insecure about her food, only eating if we stayed with her. She definitely found her furever people and she’s living her best life.
