🐈⬛October’s cutest shadows are ready to follow you home. 🐈⬛
October is here, which means it’s officially Black Cat Appreciation
Season — and we’re here to set the record straight: our shadow‑colored
sweethearts are not spooky, cursed, or lurking in the night plotting
mischief. Honestly… they’re usually the opposite.
In fact, black cats tend to be some of the most social, affectionate,
people‑loving cats you’ll ever meet. They’re the first to greet you at
the door, the first to flop dramatically for belly rubs, and the first
to decide your lap is now their property.
Here at the shelter, we’ve got black cats in small, medium, and large
— pocket panthers, mid‑sized house ninjas, and full‑size cuddle units.
Every single one is a total delight.
So this October, let’s celebrate the sweet, silly, friendly black cats
who brighten our days. They’re not spooky… they’re spectacular. 🖤🐾
Come meet our snuggle voids Monday through Friday and take home your new best friend.
🐾 We’re still looking for flight escorts! ✈️🐱
We are hoping to find kind travelers who are flying to New York or St. Louis and would be willing to help transport kittens to their new beginnings. ❤️
If you’re traveling to either of these destinations and can help, please email us at info@stjacc.org or send us a PM through our Facebook page.
✨ There is no cost to you! The ACC provides everything needed for the kittens’ travel.
The kittens travel in soft-sided carriers that fit underneath the seat in front of you, by your feet. Depending on the airline, two kittens may be able to travel together in one carrier.
Your help could make a huge difference in giving these kittens the fresh start they deserve! 🐾❤️
Please share this post to help us reach travelers who may be able to help! 🙏

🐾 If you could adopt one animal from the ACC, who would you choose?
We asked our staff the ultimate question--and their answers might surprise you! 🐈🐕🐈⬛
From the sweet faces that steal your heart to the personalities you just can't forget, our team members each have a special animal they would bring home if they could. And remember: every animal deserves a loving home. 💝🏡
