Black cats are often the last choice for people interested in getting a new cat. Some shelters will not even take them since getting them adopted is so difficult. Why are black felines shunned? In the cat world, black is one of the most common colors. Potential owners may want a different look such as various color combinations, stripes or a different solid color.
Some people are superstitious of black cats. A common superstition is that a black feline walking across a human's path brings bad luck. A black kitty can make humans that subscribe to that particular belief very fearful or at least, uneasy. Interestingly, in other places such as the UK, black-coated cats are believed to bring good luck. Also, discovering a white hair on a black feline is considered to be good luck. Since white hairs are common on black animals, there are many chances to find good luck for the owner of a black kitty.

Historically, black cats have often been considered to be harbingers of evil. They were thought to be friends to witches, and witches could supposedly take on the physical form of a cat in order to hide among humans in order to carry out evil deeds.
Potential owners may avoid black felines if they have a a lot of light-colored furniture and carpets or a tendency to wear a lot of light-colored clothing. Unfortunately, black coats shed like any other colored coat, and black hairs do tend to show up more on light colors.
Black kitties have the false reputation of not having good personalities. Since a cat's personality traits are due to environment and genetics and not coat color, black felines have the same range of personalities as other cats. But, stray black cats may be more likely to be targeted for abuse, and abused cats are less likely to make good companions without lots of work on behalf of the owner. This phenomenon may be partially responsible for the belief that black felines are not as friendly as other cats.
Please consider a black cat if you are searching for a new feline friend. Remember that around the month of October, some shelters restrict adoption of black animals due to safety concerns on behalf of the pet and a high rate of returns from people who want to use the cats as Halloween decorations. Plenty of black felines are loving, sweet, and wonderful companions, and one could be the perfect cat for you!

Black & Decker LP1000 Alligator Lopper 4.5 amp Electric Chain Saw Overview
 The Alligator Lopper's wide 4-inch jaw capacity easily chews through small trunks and logs. |
 Because the Alligator Lopper cuts side-to-side instead of up and down, the chain won't bury itself in the ground when the cut is completed -- saving wear and tear on the cutting surface. |
 The Alligator Lopper's controlled, smooth cutting action makes clean-up from storms or simple pruning easy, safe, and fast. |
Black & Decker offers both cordless and electric chain saws, including the Alligator Lopper electric chain saw and 18-volt cordless chain saws. Chain saws feature powerful motors for fast cutting and a sturdy, lightweight design that makes them exceptionally easy to use.
The Alligator Lopper Makes Cutting a Breeze
Take a big bite out of fallen trees, tree limbs and brush with the Alligator Lopper -- a revolutionary cutting tool that provides chainsaw-like cutting performance in an un-intimidating tool. With its scissor-like action, the Alligator Lopper’s rugged metal jaws clamp onto logs, thick branches, tree limbs, and vines -- and then saw right through them. Once limbs and branches are on the ground, the Alligator Lopper is perfect for chopping them up into manageable pieces to throw away or chuck into your fireplace.
This amazing saw boasts a rugged 4.5 amp motor for fast, powerful chomping through wood -- plus a heavy-duty cutting bar and chain to really chew through dense branches and logs. This model also features auto chain tensioning to keep the tool in top cutting form. Just loosen the bar retainer bolts with the included wrench and the bar automatically takes out the slack and adjusts the chain’s tension perfectly.
The Alligator Lopper’s jaws offer the ultimate in controlled cutting. The rugged metal guards that cover the jaws protect you from the cutting chain, and they immediately snap back over the blades once the cut is complete. The Alligator Lopper’s jaws also mean that there's no skipping around at the start of a cut. Unlike traditional chainsaws, the lopper cuts side-to-side instead of from top to bottom. This sideways cutting action prevents the cutting chain from burying itself in the dirt as the chain completes its cut.
The Alligator Lopper also makes it much faster and easier to cut logs, because you'll never need to prop them up on saw horses or on other any other brace. Just grab the logs in the Alligator Lopper’s jaws and cut right through them.
