It's National Black Cat Appreciation Day

This iconic image is, of course, French in origin.  It is also a reference to the Paris establishment of the same name, and was originally formed as a meeting place for literary and artistic types.  It seems appropriate then, if only marginally, to reference it here on Section VII, since we have some literary acumen.  Well, we try to have literary acumen.
On a day honoring black cats, something I think we've done here on numerous occasions, I thought it might be nice to tell some stories, post pictures... however you would like to join in the conversation.
I know my chat noir, Precious, is a dear and clever little feline who adds immensely to my life.  Even when she's knocking things off of tables in order to satisfy either her curiosity or gain my attention, I wouldn't trade her for any number of tantilizing temptations.
Please use the comment section to post a photo or to add some kitty love to the thread.  If you have a story you'd like to post in relation to it, just mention the occasion. Certainly one of our most popular PicFic prompts is the black cat on the steps, and there are a few of those from last week's Writer's Choice selections. Mine is HERE

OMG OMG OMG! I didn't know there was a National Black Cat Appreciation Day? Then again there's probably an appreciation day for anything and everything. lol!

Here's my black beauty Luna, who just turned 7 years old has been certified as a support animal as helps me monitor a medical condition. She was never a lap cat, and when she climbs into my lap I know I need to check my condition, as I'm asymptomatic. She's playful and mischievous, and likes to deliberately hide on me. All I have to do is check the oddest places and there she is... Luna's a real sweetheart and a real character.

Such a pretty girl. I call Precious pretty girl so often she probably thinks it's part of her name.

LOL! I call Luna, Lou, or Lou-Magoo, or sometimes Gooch. She definitely knows all her nick names.
