If the black cat has white fur as well, then yes. Solid black cats can have blue eyes, but it is very rare due to the way feline genetics are set up. In order for a black cat to have blue eyes, it must also carry the gene for white fur. A black cat with blue eyes usually has a tiny patch of white somewhere on its body (even just one or two hairs). It is much more common for a solid black cat to have yellow or green eyes.
