My black cats are lovely, very cuddly, but definitely more scaredy and cautious than other house cats I’ve met. I wonder whether there’s something in their genes that makes them less trusting due to generations and generations of abuse from humans who thought they were incarnations of witches.

We had a batch of cats spawn in the back yard of my parents house, none were black but even though they were all from the same litter they all had totally different levels of trust to us from aggressive to super chill you can pick up and toss over your shoulder like a baby
