We specifically went looking for black tuxedo cats when we went on the EPIC SEARCH for the boykitties, because their predecessor, Dread Beastie, was a black tuxedo cat.
Left to my own devices, I would be a crazy cat lady, and have five or six. Pete keeps me from that path.
It seems like all of my friends who have cats have at least one black one, so there's plenty of us out there unafraid of getting a little familiar.
I've always had black or grey cats. Trinian is the odd one of the bunch, but when a bundle of white fluff climbs straight up your skirts to get to your lap, you take the kitten home.
The last cat we got, we were seeking a tuxedo kitty.
She's glaring at me right now. I think her fat little face wants MOAR FOOD.
I've almost always had at least one black cat in my life.
Amazing that people are still ... superstitious? about black cats. Really? That's sort of ridiculous.
Thanks to the force of nature that are the LOLcats, we call our black cat "Basement Cat" now. She is unmoved.
Oh- I once showed someone a picture of my cat with my mom's cats- all of them black, and they were so shocked at all the black cats they physically jumped back from the picture in horror!
Seriously?? Seriously.

I want dozens of cats and dozens of dogs. And, goats.
I plan to retire one day to the country and have lots of land and all sorts of rescued critters. I have to get rid of my traveling bug, though, because it's really hard to take off for a couple of weeks when you've got acres of animals.
I had no idea that people didn't adopt black cats. I've known so many--indeed I've owned a fair number myself. Maybe there are more of them born than some of the other colors? Aren't calicoes relatively rare? So maybe black cats are just relatively a lot more common.
And, in one fell swoop, java ensures we will never grow old together.

I've never seen statistics on how common different types of cats are. But the shelter we volunteer at has quite a few black and tuxie cats. At least a couple of whom are very friendly.
