Meanwhile...
I love all creatures. I consider them, all of them, to be sentient beings... I write thrillers, fantasy, mysteries, gothic horror, romantic adventure, occult, Noir, westerns and various types of short stories. I also re-tell traditional folk tales and make old fairy tales carefully cracked. I'm often awake very early in the morning. A cuppa, and fifteen minutes later I'm usually writing something. ;)

Please keep your black-furred animals safe this Halloween!!!...

 

There may be cruel, superstitious people out there who want to hurt them!!!... 😿😿😿


At this time, it is not safe for black-furred animals to be adopted out. Many shelters begin holding off on allowing anyone to adopt black-furred animals (especially cats, but also dogs, rabbits, etc...even orange cats have been off the adoption lists during this time in many shelters) from about mid-way through September until after Halloween passes.
Humans have been known to hunt black-furred animals in earnest during the month of October. Many people in a number of countries harbour malicious, inane superstitions about black cats.
In the United States, black-furred cats and wolves (and increasingly black dogs) seem to be the most targeted animals. They are hated, despised, and shunned at no time more so than during October, the month of Halloween.
This is not a religion-specific, or anti-religious issue. There are no peoples of any single religion or of non-religion who are only to blame for these acts. An illogical hate for black-furred animals spans over many cultures in several parts of the world and usually stems from old-world governmental structure.
There are many people in the United States, as well as all over the world, trying to end this nightmare for black-furred animals (again, at its worst during the month of October), and the backwater superstitions connected with black-furred animals that infect a great number of countries world wide.
That being stated, if you see a black-furred animal out and about during this month (or ANY animal for that matter, as instances of animal abuse rise significantly during the month of October, as the organisation Cat Guardian has pointed out on numerous occasions), please take a little extra time to watch over the helpless animal, ensuring the animal's safety.
It would also be beneficial to mention to whomever the guardian (some call them "owners") appears to be, that it is not safe to let their animals outside (not even in their own backyards, sadly), especially during this terrible time where society shows its underbelly by targeting them based specifically on the colour of their black fur.
