My cat is black and is a bit savage like the previous cat that I had
before. I don't know why black cats are al anupprochable. You know why?

Each cat is different. One of the most affectionate cats I've ever had was
black.

Our black cat Laku is very approachable, a real love bug and very calm
too, just a bit chatty at times. So apparently not *all* black cats are
savages.

Helen Miles...

I suspect it could possibly be your handling techniques and treatment of
the cats. How do you handle her and what do you feed her and how?

Black cats are not unapproachable. Your experience is either coincidence or
lack of knowledge. Someone on this group might be able to help if you post
a specific question.

My Holly is a gorgeous, all-black cat. She is almost always within a few
feet of me whenever I am in the house. She is definitely a one-person cat
and is a bit skittish around strangers. However, she soon warms up if they
just wait for her to come to them instead of trying to head directly toward
her. She is decides for herself when it is time to rest in my lap (that is,
she wants to choose the timing and not me), but it is *frequent.* You can
see some pictures of her if you look at the links under my signature.

On the contrary. I've owned 4 black cats and they have all been the
sweetest and most intelligent cats of all.

All the black cats I've known, including my Bagheera, have been very
friendly.

I've never found them so! I've only had one completely
black (my other "black" cats were more-or-less tuxedos), but
he was a real love-bug, who'd eagerly approach anyone,
stranger or not, in hopes of being petted.
