I am an animal advocate and pet photographer in Los Angeles who uses animal photography to help them get adopted.
For this Halloween-themed series, I photographed black cats against a black background to emphasize their beauty and showcase their personalities.
Black cats have the lowest cat adoption rates and the highest euthanasia rates, in part because they typically don’t photograph well. I wanted to show that it is possible to get great pictures of these adorable cats. I hope my photos inspire people to adopt such beautiful cats and to volunteer for their local animal shelter.
The cats featured below are from West Los Angeles Animal Services and Milo’s Sanctuary.

"Some believe that Celts and witches would sacrifice cats by throwing them into a fire, often in wicker cages, and that people still do this today. Because of this fear, many animal shelters refuse to allow cats to be adopted during the Halloween season, fearing that the cats could be killed, and people are advised to keep their black pets indoors."

I’m more of a dog person, but would love a black cat if I wasn’t allergic cats in general. Rita’s eyes are beautiful.
