I think the black cat/bad luck superstition is a US one. Don't believe in it myself. Dear little Onyx walked in front of me often; how I miss her.

Re: Superstitions
On the first day of the month it is lucky to say
"white rabbits, white rabbits, white rabbits"
before uttering your first words of the day.
