Well, they are all black, so they blend in with the night, with only their eyes showing. Since their eyes glow, it gives them a mysterious, other-worldly type look. And they are nocturnal, so they have lots of opportunities to show that off.
Note-Some people are freaked out by this and think that black cats are evil/bad luck/ you get the point. Others love the way they look and, even if they don't like the way it looks, learn to look past that and see the black cat's personality.

Don't let yourself be prejudiced by a gift from nature, I'm just saying.

Because people say that black cats are evil and they are bads luck.
