Here's What It Really Means When You See A Black Cat

The sad reality is that due to all the negative misconceptions about black cats, these adorable pets are passed up often at animal shelters (via Wellness Pet Food) But black cats are just as cuddly and adorable as any other breed or fur coat color. They make the purrfect companions, especially if you're a single woman. 

According to Nationwide Pet Insurance, black cats are known to be good luck to have in Japan if you're a woman looking for love. Being seen with one is supposed to increase your number of suitors (via the South Florida Reporter). So, if you're on any dating apps, you should upload a few pics with your black kitty. And if anyone opposes because they think black cats are bad luck, you can easily swipe left knowing that they're wrong. That's because at the end of the day, seeing a black cat has no real significance as far as luck goes. However, if you're a cat-lover, consider the sighting a positive to your day.
