Black Cats, Werewolves & Whiskers — Oh My!

A PennyFix Halloween Tail (and Tale!)

Halloween is the time of year when black cats stretch their sleek silhouettes in moonlight and dogs seem to howl just a little louder at the glowing full moon. But here at PennyFix, we think spooky season is the purr-fect time to celebrate our furry friends — not fear them!

For centuries, black cats have been wrapped in mystery — whispered about as witches’ companions or symbols of bad luck. But today, we know the truth: black cats are just as sweet, playful, and loveable as any other color! In fact, they’re often the last to be adopted simply because of outdated myths. So if you’re looking for a little extra magic in your life this Halloween, adopt a black cat — they go with everything, especially orange pumpkins.

And let’s not forget our canine companions. Those howls in the night? Not werewolves — just a neighborhood pup reminding everyone he’d rather be chasing treats than ghosts! But even our most loyal trick-or-treat partners need a little protection from the “monsters” of overpopulation. That’s where spay/neuter comes in. It’s not scary at all — in fact, it’s one of the kindest things you can do.

By supporting PennyFix, you’re helping keep real-life horror stories — like unwanted litters and shelter overcrowding — from haunting communities across the country. Every penny helps fund spay/neuter grants for rescues, shelters, and clinics that make a difference every day.

So this Halloween, let’s replace fear with compassion, superstition with science, and myths with miracles. 🐾
Adopt. Spay. Neuter. Love.
Because there’s nothing scary about saving lives.

Happy Halloween from all of us at PennyFix!
