What is consider lucky in one culture may be anathema in another (for instance white dresses for weddings in this country but white dresses for funerals in many parts of Asia). I've loved each of my black cats dearly -- they could cross my path (or my lap) as often as they wanted to, any day/number of the week.Fran Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01230580828240178414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-32958636399578967512015-02-18T15:07:46.213-05:002015-02-18T15:07:46.213-05:00Nice cat.
