But now thanks to Black Panther, the latest Marvel flick to hit movie theaters, black cats are being adopted by the dozens. Unexpected Benefit of Black Panther: my local pet shelters went from having something like 50-60 black cats between them to having NONE, because theyve all been adopted out and named after the characters.
