National Black Cat Day is Cats Protection’s annual campaign to celebrate black and black-and-white cats, who take longer to find a home than their colourful counterparts
For the past 10 years, Cats Protection’s National Black Cat Day has been a chance to shine a light on black and black-and-white cats, who have sadly been regularly overlooked for adoption.
Cat lover Anne has raised a fantastic £100 for the Cats Protection branch she adopted her black cat Flic from. Having previously had a black cat called Liquorice, Anne wasn’t looking for another but couldn’t resist little Flic when she and her husband spotted her on the Chelmsford & District Branch website.

In 2018, black-and-white cat Tasha was finally offered a forever home after spending a year in the care of Cats Protection’s Gateshead & Newcastle Branch. In return, the three-year-old moggy has enriched the life of her new owner Phil Sherry, by helping him with his mental health struggles.
Black-and-white cat Jessie was one of the first cats to arrive at Cats Protection’s newly established Richmond Branch and has left a lasting impression on the volunteers who cared for her.
