The black cat has long been surrounded by an aura of mystery. The anthracite fur and twinkling emerald or amber eyes are mesmerizing. Folklore tradition always gives the black cat a somewhat ominous reputation: he is either a companion of evil spirits, or he himself is the embodiment of Darkness. In Rus' they were feared, considered an integral attribute of a sorcerer or witch, and they were destroyed mercilessly. Until now, many people, when they meet, chase a black cat away from the road, fearing impending troubles. And the breed does not matter; the superstitious are frightened by the dramatic color.
Although, for example, the Scots believe that a black cat entering a house will certainly bring wealth, and its owner will be besieged by admirers.
People, far from prejudices, open their arms wide and drag a new family member into the house.
And you must definitely choose a name for your pet that will best reflect all facets of his Personality!
Well, doesn't this handsome man deserve the best name?

The Behemoth cat still knows nothing about his famous namesake
Mysticism and superstition
Many people associate black cats with secrets and riddles. After all, everyone remembers the plots of Russian fairy tales, in which a big black cat personifies otherworldly forces. The huge talking cat Behemoth from the novel “The Master and Margarita” terrified the residents of Moscow. In the legends and epics of many nations you can find images of black cats, but superstitious people avoid them.
Therefore, many are afraid of black cats and treat them with great distrust. This is completely in vain! Black cats have a wonderful, easy-going character, they are smart and obedient. Contrary to all superstitions, such a pet brings happiness to its owner and even protects him from manifestations of negative energy.
English names
Black cats are imbued with the deepest respect for their own person, and this makes them a force to be reckoned with. Apparently, this is why they wear dryly noble English names with dignity.
