National Black Cat Day 2025
The Quimper Hitty and human households both love cats, especially black ones…
.
.
The humans have two Black Cats in the family – Blueberry is a pretty boy with a sinuous and expressive tail – he likes to keep our vegetable patch free from unwanted rodents…
.
.
…and also likes to do Quality control when I am doing outdoor photos of the Hittys!
.
.
Siyah is our plump “Queen of the household” whose favourite job is to help with projects involving yarn…
.
.
…and provide quality control advice on the finished projects!
.
.
The Hittys acquired a beautiful black cat this summer, made by master carver Adina Huckins…
.
.
…the Hittys named him Blueberry after the human cat, and he seems to have acquired an appreciation of woollen projects from Siyah…
.
.
…and an appreciation of the great outdoors from Blueberry.
.
.
The human cats declined to have official portraits taken for Black Cat day…
.
.
…but Arianell gave the Hitty black cats all the love they would allow her to…
.
.
…October 27th is National Black Cat Day…but we think every day is a good day to appreciate black cats!

Pretty kitties. Love Arianell’s apron and the picture of her with her clowder of assorted cats
Black cats rule! They are all very photogenic.
I like black cats too though the rescue charity I got my cats from told me that black ones are hard to home because they are believed to be unlucky!
Blueberry (awesome name) and Siyah are adorable and I hope they had a happy black day! I like the Hitty’s cats too! Looks like a lot of potential kitty mischief at your home!
that is quite a pride of black cats…. love the variety!
we love them all!
