In Filipino black color is called itim. We have a new friend cat in the house a bit young black cat. When I first saw it, I had anxiety because I think black cats are bad luck when you see one. But my sister who loves cats is friendly with Itim. It is just a stray cat. I learn to be kind to the black cat. I overcome my anxiety and learned to show compassion instead. We call her itim. Not sure if she's a girl or not

If you are superstitious it will effect you. It's good you overcome the anxiety with black, it's nothing like that.

Most superstitious beliefs are psychological and if you believe it, it will effect you. As you know it's all game of mind and belief. Itim is a good name, sounds cute!

Yeah game of mind and belief. It's not a common color for a cat but anyways I will not hate her and still be kind to her. I think it will give me good luck if I showed her kindness

I think that's a bad superstition. I have had many black cats and have one now. Cute cat.

That's superstitious. Cats in any color are easy to tame and could readily learn tricks. Though they're annoying but it's their nature.

Cats can be a fun animal to have around when you have no 1 else to entertain your time, we just adopted a solid black kitten a few days ago it's a female, she's pretty cool she loves being in our laps & play with empty bottles.
