EARLIER this week the world celebrated Black cat appreciation day, and here at the Argus, we shared with you the story of five felines in need of a forever home.
But, along with the cute cats currently in the care of the RSPCA, we asked our readers to help celebrate the day, asking them to share pictures of their pets.
And, taking to the South Wales Argus Facebook page, our readers delivered.
Below, you can check out a selection of pictures of cute black cats from around the Newport, Gwent, and wider South Wales area.
Despite what the superstitions might say, there’s nothing unlucky about these critters – at least, as far as we’re aware.
Not to worry if you missed out on the post the first time around either, as you can still check it out, and post your pictures here.
So, for some cute cat pictures, scroll on down.
