Black Cat
When we first rescued Luna, we were applauded for bringing home a black cat (apparently there are a lot of superstitious people out there). I accepted the praise and didn’t mention that I just happen to be obsessed with Halloween. Luna was the first to receive a dose of decorating this past week (how very Alexander McQueen is her collar?) and my friend Cristina was kind enough to accompany to three separate stores so that our apartment will look the part as well. Fall brings with it a lot of exciting things, but Halloween certainly tops my list.

Her collar is gorgeous! Happy halloween
i just adore your cat! I have a weakness for black cats (I had to give mine away two years ago and still miss her)…and the collar is great!!!
Even your cat is cute and stylish
Is it something with the water? I mean what can I add to mine to make the whole family beautiful and classy??

Halloween is so fun! and you can make the cutest treats! Yay for your friend not having an H in her name…i hardly ever see that!
She is certainly very Lanvin, your little beauty.
I love cats! That skull collar is beautiful.
I love Halloween!! what are you going to dress up as!?

Oh black cats are the best. Indeed my father refuses to acknowledge any other colour cat!
I love Halloween too! I am probably going to decorate my house this weekend, I don’t know why but Halloween decorations always excite me more than any other holiday. I can’t wait to see you decorations.
I love your Luna’s collar, my cat is also named Luna and she always manages to slip out of hers!
None of our three cats are black, but last year I also thought they should help out with the Halloween spirit, and I brought home a witch hat for kitties! I guess it wasn’t terribly surprising though that none of them liked to wear it, and they all shook their heads until it kind of fell off.
I’m so happy to see Luna again I was wondering how she was doing. People can be so silly about black cats. I too own a black cat, Angus. And I’m obsessed with Halloween. I went seeking out a black cat when we decided to adopt a kitten. I’ve been so happy ever since. I love her collar, I’ve been trying to find an orange one for Angus for Halloween/Autumn (a spiked orange collar, I haven’t had much luck). HAPPY HALLOWEEN EARLY! ox
lovely cat, and super cool collar!
I love black cats, they are super pretty and seem to worry more about grooming. My friend has 3 cats and one of them is black, and her black cat is my favorite. SUpertition, schmuperstition.
She is so sweet! I have always had black cats. I love them.
So funny that people are still spooked by black cats! Especially lovely ladies like Luna.

greeting
Luna is so adorable!! Her little collar makes her look badass!! Haha! I had a black cat growing up, so I’m very fond of them. Can’t wait to see your Halloween decorations!
I grew up with a black cat that loved the outdoors. Every Halloween we were sure to keep him inside. there are some crazy people out there.
I KNEW I liked you….!
We had a black cat when I was younger…it was he devil though, lol. We had to get rid of him
It seems Luna is a much better kitty 
Love your kitty. I have always had black cats. People are so strange.

Wow. Luna is one badass kitty.
I’m not superstitious at all, I never understand people who talk like that… Luna is darling!
I love Halloween and Luna looks adorable in her collar!!
very cute kitty. black cats are the shizz.
Oh she’s so cute like that!
She’s adorable! And I’m a Halloween kinda girl too!

What a beautiful cat … And kudos on deciding to rescue – Too many people don’t!
I have a black cat, too! His name is Lucifer (he’s a little devious).
I just might love Halloween decorations more than Halloween itself.

My birthday is in October, so I’ve had a long love affair with Halloween. Love it & I can’t wait to start shopping this year for my costume ! BTW, Cute Kitty
my best friend LOVES halloween as well! she made her own day of the dead costume last year .. it was so awesome! i cant wait to see how you decorate/what you dress up as!
Luna is so adorable. I think that black cats are the prettiest.
Also, I can’t wait to see all of these decorations that you speak of.
Halloween is my absolute favorite too. Pumpkin spice lattes and orange twinkle lights just make me love the season even more. Oh, and if you are thinking of craving pumpkins, are you going to get them from Mr. Bones? Even a night at Knott’s Scary Farm is fun! ; )
Yay Halloween! And Luna is adorable!!
Hmm Halloween this year…hay rides, haunted houses, Dorney Park… yay!
This is my favorite time of year… Halloween is my Christmas.
The cat in her collar is so adorable.
Aw, she’s all ready for the most wonderful holiday of all!
She looks darling – and her name is so fitting for Halloween as well…Luna.
She is adorable Emily! Also I wanted to let you know that if you really wanted some x benches similar to the ones I posted earlier this week, these are some of my favorite options:

Have a great weekend!
Your Luna could be twins with my Sophie! How precious!
I’ve also heard that black cats are euthanized more than any other color. Sad that so many believe a silly superstition.
I love your cats collar! Halloween is fab, i’m already planning my outfit x
What a cutie. I wish I could dress my dog up but she’s not having it. I guess I’ll just have to settle for dressing myself and my conso.

agreed! I love Halloween!
Halloween tops Xmas in my books – I’ve always gone WAY beyond for the holiday, from haunted houses in my garage every year, and now to see Evil Dead the musical.
Oh and I have NEVER not dressed up for Halloween – even done so in New Zealand, twice, which doesn’t even celebrate. I’ve dressed up for 27 years straight! For the last 9 years I have dressed as movie or film or TV characters – this year is no exception ;P which reminds me, have to get started on my costume now!
what are you gonna be??
What a gorgeous Halloween kitty! My birthday is on Halloween, so it’s my absolute favorite holiday and, I must admit, I get majorly into it. I can’t wait to see what you cook up for the big day!
as someone who is obsessed with Halloween, you may like to know that it’s my husband’s birthday! (btw, did you receive email i sent a few days ago?)
your car looks really pretty and that collar’s nice! skull print, i like.

oops, i meant cat, typo error.
She’s gorgeous and looks just like my own black cat, Asha. I love having a black cat – she makes me feel like a witch! Haha!
Oh, Luna is just so chic!
Yay Luna! Can you go out of town so I can take care of her again?!
Loving your blog and Halloween also – mainly because it’s my birthday so it means dressing up AND presents! It always makes for great themed birthday parties. Starting the countdown now!

Luna is lovely! I have two cats myself, and just have to ask: where DID you get that amazing collar for her? LOVE it!
cute cat
I too rescued my cat, Lulu, in January. She is 3 and people wondered why I didn’t get a kitten but I specifically wanted to rescue. She is a total joy as I’m sure Luna is for you. She is beautiful!
When I was 5 years old, my parents took me to the Humane Society to pick out a kitten. No matter all their pushing towards the white fluffy kittens, I gravitated to the scrawny looking black kitten in the corner. Good thing my parents ended up letting me take control of the situation, because Skeeter ended up being the love of my life for 18 years! I swear by it, black cats are good luck
I love black cats.

She’s too cute! My parents rescued a black kitten around Halloween, she was soo teeny tiny! They found her on the side of the road crying in the rain so they picked her up and brought her home. Because she was a black cat and it was around Halloween (my family and I LOVE Halloween also!)we wanted to name her something spooky but ended up spooking ourselves with the names we tossed around! Her name ended up being Josie and shes the sweetest cat ever. I love black cats, I think they are gorgeous and Luna is such a clever name!
my friends and i often plot about catching stray cats and planting them in my backyard so it forces my mom to let me adopt him. cute kitty, luna after the black cat from sailor moon? i used to want to name my cat luna after luna from sailor moon, he was so funny. i can’t wait till halloween either although i have no idea what to wear, i just want to carve a pumpkin!!!!
Ah i have a girl black cat too, looks just like yours actually! Black cats are my absolute favorite, that collar is the best!!
Cute! Black cat is so fierce.
She’s beautiful. I remember photos of when my mom and dad were first together—they had a black cat who looked a lot like Luna. I remember thinking she looked so mysterious.
She’s so sweet! I love that she has a festive halloween-esque collar as well
She is darling. You should bring her around your town this halloween and show her off- the kids would love it!
I have a black cat too and I rescued her from the streets. I love her!! Hooray for black kitties!
Many superstitions but they’re the reasons why I want one. Haha

shes super cute!!!
One just can’t help getting carried away with the festivities of halloween!
And luna is beautiful. We rescued a black cat three years ago and named her B.E.C., the Black Entertainment Cat.
Adorable! I like Halloween in general but I kind of hate Halloween movies, or any scary movies for that matter. Weird, huh?
so cute… nice collard… Im looking for a new one to Rita, my lovely gray cat : )… love the idea of using different ones for each season!!
she’s lovely! just so much as my Growling … i miss him so much! love her collar.
Luna’s beautiful! I’m also a huge Halloween fan. I’m already planning baking projects, party games and costumes for my newly rescued puppy, Muldoon!
It’s so funny, I’ve never really been into Halloween…I kind of avoid it, to be honest with you!…but last year I dressed the dogs up as Biggie and Tu-paco! Have to represent my love of hip hop, you know:) This year I think I’ll be holed up with a baby girl. She’ll be in a little ghost shirt that says Boo that my sister gave her!
I have a beautiful black cat as well! I believe that she needs an awesome collar just like your Luna. Reading on twitter about you getting out your Halloween decorations has inspired me to get mine out as well!

So adorable! Good for you for getting a little black kitty!

I can’t wait to see what you’ve been doing!
Yes yes yes to Halloween! It’s my fave ‘holiday’ of the whole year—the decorations and the costumes are right up my alley! and of course having a sweet black kitty as an accessory completes the fun
Luna is a beauty. Can’t wait to see peaks into your Halloween decor.
I love, love, love October (or shall we say ROCKtober?!) It’s my birthday month and I love Halloween, too! Any ideas on costumes yet?
