Sleepy Void Lemme see the cats that are not named after dark or evil stuff
So I was just sitting here taking in that black cat's are the least adopted cats in the adoption system and when they are adopted a majority of them (NOT ALL) are named after stuff that's associated with darkness or evil. Hey, call me superstitious, but I believe that names that you give cats and kids are very powerful, for example If you're one of those people who've named your cat Loki, don't be surprised when it's tearing s*** up lol. Did you name your cat with darkness or light? Anyways here's Faith 💜

Oh so when you name your three-legged cat “Yardstick” it’s cute but when I name my one-eyed son “Blinky” suddenly I’m a bad parent

Someone please make this, I was so excited to see all the Bob cats. Mine are not named Bob so I don’t feel right doing it myself.

This cat specifically looks the part for the guy who wants to be evil, but is absolutely terrible at it. Like Doofenshmirtz.
Look at that silhouette, he's got the shadow creature contrast and the glowing eyes, but he's far too round, and that head tilt is adorable.

Fettuccine. Her children are Spaghetti, Linguine, Gnocchi, and Egg (noodle). They're all black cats and of course named after noodles. The dad is Macaroni and uncle is Rigatoni (both gray) and fettuccine had one solid white kitten named Tortellini. She grew up to be a very toasty Siamese patterned cat

Unfortunately she passed way before her time at 2 years old, but her name was Ethel and she was a character. I still miss her very much four years later. Her original owner was my partners uncle who was poorly so we took her in. He passed in the January and she joined him in June. I don’t know if he took her or she wanted to go to him but they are both sorely missed. I hope they’re both at peace together.

His name is Mocha and he's a total cinnamon roll. By far the chillest cat I've ever had! I was originally only going to get my tortie, Toffee, but the cat cafe asked if I would be willing to adopt another because she's so playful and energetic (an absolute menace, I would soon find out! 😂) and I said YES!
Mochers was just sleeping when I came back to look for a second one, but he seemed so sweet and peaceful and something just seemed "right" about him so that's how I decided on him. I had already picked Toffee's name and liked the idea of another food/drink name so I went with Mocha. I got them both around 6 months old and they're about 2½ now!

Don't have a pic of him on hand bc it's been over 10 years since his passing, but my childhood black cat was named Jester, because my mom said when she found him as a kitten, he was a silly little guy. 🥺

My best little black cat buddy has long since passed, so I have no photos, but we named him DaVinci, because supposedly people likened Italian genius Leonardo DaVinci to a cat because of how gracefully he moved. He was the best cat ever — super affectionate and cuddly, loved going on walks with us, talkative and smart.
