Some of our favourite black cats this National Black Cat Day.

Last Saturday 27 October (or should that be cat-urday?), we celebrated the magic of monochrome moggies. Showcasing the best in black and black-and-white cats, we released a ‘fifty shades of black’ swatch chart to help you identify your cat’s true hue.

We were inundated with excellent pictures of your feline friends – from stylish ‘Rosello Reds’ to galactic ‘Outer Space Black’ shades. To sum up a great Black Cat Day, here is our pick of the top black cats from our Instagram feed.

Sadly, over 40% of the cats taken in by Cats Protection centres are black, and these moggies can take 13% longer to find their forever homes than cats of other colours. If you want to find your own black cat, see some of the moggies waiting for their own homes.
