The Mojo Black Cat Sitting figure shows a common household pet in a relaxed, seated position. The figure features a smooth, glossy coat in a deep, dark color.
The cat's posture is natural and lifelike, with its body seated upright, tail curled neatly around its paws, and eyes alert, giving it an air of quiet observation. Yellow / orange eyes provide a vivid contrast.
The Mojo Black Cat - Sitting figure measures approximately 1.7 L x 1.5 H x 0.7 W inches.
Black cats have been both revered and feared throughout history, often surrounded by a variety of myths and superstitions. In many cultures, black cats are considered symbols of mystery and magic. In ancient Egypt, cats were revered, and black cats were particularly associated with the goddess Bastet, who represented home, fertility, and protection. Conversely, in medieval Europe, black cats were often linked to witchcraft and considered omens of bad luck. This dichotomy in perception has made black cats an enduring symbol of both good and bad fortune.
Physically, black cats are no different from cats of other colors, but their solid black coat is due to a dominant allele gene that results in a high level of eumelanin, a pigment. This genetic trait can be found in various breeds, including the Bombay, which is specifically bred to have a sleek, panther-like appearance. The black coat of these cats can sometimes have a rusty or brownish tint when exposed to the sun due to the breakdown of the pigment.
