October has almost always been known as Black Cat Month, and our photo calendar would not be complete without photos of sleek black cats. Here are photos of October cats submitted by About Cats readers for your pleasure.

You can click on the small images to view full-sized photos of October black cats, where available.

Vinny "Vinny, Full Name: "Vinny - Off The Table!!!". It was very easy for her to achieve this very important title. Everytime food is on the table, especially breakfast, she jumps on the table and tries to grab something delicious...." -- Harald Seeger

	Spock "Spock was our gentleman cat. He was the first to welcome new arrivals, and was very nice about always asking to sit on my lap. Then he would settle right down and start purring away. We helped Spock's mom raise him from kittenhood (she lives with us too), until he died in June of this year. He was nearly two years old and we miss him very much, but would love to see him featured during Black Cat Month! " "   -- Pam (Fierce Girl - Fierce Cats)
	Galena "Galena was very young when we purchased her from the pet store, being only six weeks old. Throughout the first year and a half of her life, she always tried to sleep on my neck during the night, and treated me like I should've been her mommy. She's the adventurous one of the three we own, and is never afraid to check out somewhere new. She's also not very camera friendly. ;) "   -- Ann Hosler
	Misery "Her name is Misery. She’s my sweet little Halloween kitty! "   -- Tara Gorden
	Spooki "I have 20 cats but Spooki is my only black cat. She was named after the song because she is crazy and thus a little "spooki" to live with. "   -- Dee Braxton-Pellegrino
	Squirt "This little black beauty is Squirt. We found him in a ditch across the street from our home just screaming for all he was worth. He was only two weeks old and almost starved to death. We purchased kitten milk and had to shove his face into the shallow dish because he couldn't find the milk. He wouldn't drink from a kitten bottle either. We weren't sure he would make it and he was so tiny we decided to call him 'Squirt.' "   -- Taurus
