Please support black cat in shelters...
- Black cats aren’t rare—just overlooked.
One reason black cats are common in shelters is that there are simply more of them. The gene for black fur is dominant in cats, and it's represented in over 20 recognized breeds.
- Some black cats change color.
Under bright sunlight, black cats may reveal hidden reddish or copper highlights, thanks to the underlying tabby gene. This makes every black cat visually unique.
- Their eyes are especially striking.
The same high melanin content that gives black cats their deep, glossy coats often results in bright orange or amber eyes, creating a dramatic contrast.
- They might be more resilient.
Researchers at the National Institutes of Health have found that black cats may have a genetic resistance to certain illnesses, including FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). Their dark fur might be more than beautiful—it could be protective.
How to help :
- Adopt: Consider welcoming a black cat into your home. You'll be gaining a loyal companion with personality and resilience. Check your local shelter for black 🐈⬛ promotions.
- Donate: Your contributions support shelter pets by funding food, medical care, and lifesaving transports.
- Volunteer: Help your local shelter photograph, socialize, or foster black cats to increase their adoption chances.
- Share: The more we challenge outdated myths, the more black cats find loving homes. Use your voice to advocate for these beautiful animals.

Silver Creek Cat Rescue mystery...
A cantankerous former mayor.
A dead man with a secret.
A magic gift in the middle of it all.
When forty-nine-year-old Eleanor Rockwell got laid off from her soul-crushing corporate job, she headed north of Austin with her daughter, Evie, and opened Silver Circle Cat Rescue in the small town of Tablerock, Texas.
Five years later, Silver Circle is Wildebridge County's largest shelter for rescue cats, so it's no surprise when Deputy Markham brings Belladonna — former mayor Fiona Blackwell's cat — to the shelter after she's arrested for murdering her husband, Beau. But why, Eleanor wonders, did the Deputy bring a silver drink tray with the sullen cat — and why is Belladonna talking when she walks on it?
Something strange is going on in Tablerock, and Eleanor is determined to get to the bottom of it. Can she figure out who's really running this town before Belladonna's ninth life — and her own — runs out?
Crystals, Belladonna, and Murder is the first book in the Silver Circle Cat Rescue Mysteries — a purr-fectly cozy cat midlife series set in the small town of Tablerock, Texas with just a touch of magic.
Book Review :
When the Silver Circle is asked to take a cat whose owner is being held for murder by the police things get complicated. The murder suspect sent over a crystal tray with the cat. They discover a hidden compartment containing articles stating that the tray enables cats to talk. Trying to figure out what is going on involves them in the murder investigation. Fun, easy read.
