What if your cat’s personality told you more about life, love, and confidence than any self-help book ever could?

In 10 Signs Your Cat Might Be Black: Because Cattitude Always Shows Before Color, India Trotter— delivers a bold, witty, and thought-provoking look at identity, perception, and unapologetic self-worth through the mysterious, magnificent lens of the black cat.

From “If Your Cat Doesn’t Chase Attention—It Chases Her” to “If Your Cat Gives Off ‘I’m Not a Pssy’ Energy,” each chapter unpacks the traits that make cats the original icons of independence. These aren’t just feline observations—they’re life lessons wrapped in fur, claws, and charm. Blending humor with history, Trotter moves from ancient Egypt to modern living rooms, showing how the black cat evolved from goddess to scapegoat to symbol of resilience.

This isn’t a book about pets—it’s about power. About how we, like cats, can move with confidence, protect our peace, and rise after every fall. With her signature blend of bite and beauty, Trotter redefines “cattitude” as a lifestyle: graceful, grounded, and gloriously unbothered.

Inside you’ll find:

• 10 satirical signs decoding feline behavior and human truth.

• A “Black Cat Hisssss-tory Lesson” on how reverence became superstition—and back to royalty.

• The “Author’s Claw-clusion,” a soulful reflection on womanhood and survival.

• Original cat quotes that purr between chapters, adding humor, rhythm, and insight.

Whether you’re a cat lover, a woman reclaiming her confidence, or someone who appreciates a well-timed side-eye, this book will make you laugh, think, and see yourself in a new light. Because the truth is—this isn’t just about cats. It’s about the art of thriving in a world that keeps trying to declaw your shine.

And as for the black cat? She’s not crossing your path. She’s leading the way.
