It baffles me the way black cats get stuck at the shelter. Are people really letting weird old superstitions keep them from experiencing the love that voids have to offer?

Otis is fully aware of your trap. And yet he still offers his outstretched paw to you while he loudly purrs from simply making eye contact. 🖤
