What goes with pumpkins, ghosts, and witches? Black Cats, of course! No Halloween is complete with at least one. In case your house doesn't have one, here are a few of my favorite black cats - just to get you in a spooky mood! And remember, if one crosses your path you must turn around 13 times to avoid bad luck . . .
This black cat is part of a balcony railing at Chinqua-Penn Plantation:
This black cat used to live on our porch - until a neighbor's cat developed a crush on it. It now lives elsewhere (think feline protection program . . .) and is exposed to the elements, hence the kind of mangy look. Its eyes are marble and when backlit it can be a bit frightening!
Finally, the famous French Cat: Le Chat Noir. I don't know what's scarier - the yellow eyes or the ruffled fur . . . either way I would not recommend getting too close. 
Hope your Halloween is the perfect blend of scary, cute, and candy!
