Wish your wonderful aunt a Happy Halloween Birthday with a card featuring three black cats wearing blue, pink and red bows sitting on a fence gazing at a harvest moon with bats while another cat is flying on a broom in front of the moon wearing a witch hat holding a pumpkin. Original design by Laurie Schneider, elements by Digital Designs by Elena. FYI: The Egyptians revered all cats as good luck. Today, many cultures worldwide view black cats as good luck. Somewhere during the Middle Ages, Europeans got the idea that black cats were associated with witchcraft. The elderly, solitary women who often fed and cared for stray cats were also often identified as witches and the cats as their conspirators. In England (except Yorkshire) and Ireland, should a black cat cross your path, it's good luck. Speaking of Great Britain, giving a cat to a bride in the English Midlands is good luck.
