Goose and Vader came to us as TEENY TINY kittens. They were found on the side of the road, sick and scared and probably looking for their mom. These two fuzzballs could both fit into the palm of your hand.

Now they are bigger and healthy and seriously spunky! They have flourished in their foster home and now it's time for them to bring their little brand of black cat magic to new homes! These little purr monsters need to have someone love and protect them so that they can continue to live long happy lives!
 

10/23/2009 Foster update: "Silly Goose" as I call her is an inquisitive, petite girl. She enjoys the company of her brother Vander and at times I find him cleaning her ears.....which is oh so cute!!! She has been raised with my two small dogs and seeks them out for positive playful interaction. 

Centuries of superstition in the U.S. have given the black cat a bad name. But in other countries such as England and Japan, the black cat is considered to be good luck! In fact, Charles I of England owned a black cat and loved it so much, the cat was kept under constant guard. When the cat became ill and died, it just so happened that Charles was arrested the next day.... How's that for luck?!

Due to the association of black cats with witches and other "dark forces" in the United States, there is an increase in abuse of black cats around the time of Halloween. Many people will adopt black cats for "decoration" and then release them. For this reason, many animal rescues do not make black cats available for adoption during the month of October.
