How CUTE are these two kids??? Mickey and Minnie are a brother and sister pair who are a little bit shy, but sweet as sugar. Actually, Mickey has really become quite the little personality! He's a hugger and a purrer! And he won't protest if you cradle him and rub his belly. That's one of the wonderous thing about kittens.

 

As you can see, they enjoy spending time with each other, cleaning ears, attacking....you know - the usual kitten thing. And for those who haven't had the pleasure of owning a black cat, you have been deprived. Ask any black cat owner - they are the mushiest, sweetest, BEST cats. Come meet this pair! Adopt them and your house will become the happiest place on earth.

 

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.
