They don't have to be black cats. Also, cats aren't really "protectors" they just keep away the evil spirits of the dead and also keep away Anubis who is basicly a dog....thing....it tells you in the first "The Mummy" movie :D The only instince where a black cat has significance would be Halloween. But the origin of the Black Cat has nothing to do with Halloween, it refers to the time of The Black Plague. A theory that the dying people came up with was that cats were the cause of the horrid disease. Because the people wanted to stop the Bubonic Plague, they killed any cat they could find. The "Black" cat part is because the Bubonic Plague is also known as the "Black" Plague, thus the Black Cat came about.

For that reason, heretics, Jews and others were massacred in an effort to rid themselves of the disease.
Why the cat are valuable in the environment?
i dont know it doesnt make sense One example of how cats help the environment is that they keep the rat population down. How does this help the environment? Because an overpopulation of rats will lead to diseases in humans like the bubonic plague. In fact, England for example, had a bubonic plague and people were dying. The cats killed off a good amount of rats, which saved the people from this plague. In more recent years in the U.S., police and fire stations were having problems with rats spreading diseases around the cities. They tried rat poison, which helped some but not much. But then when they brought cats into the station, the diseases were eliminated. So cats protect humans from different plagues in this manner.

The most common form of the black death (bubonic plague) is believed to have spread by bites from infected fleas carrying the bacteria. Pneumonic plague, which was less common by more virulent was spread through the respiratory tract. Similarly influenza is also an airborne disease, however, other than that they are completely different pathogens that occured in completely different time periods.
