You are right to be confused. This is one reading of the superstition below:
Quote:
It depends upon where you come from. In various places around the world, a black cat (and all other cats) are considered good luck when they cross your path. However, if they sit down in the middle of crossing your path or if they bolt across in front of you, it's considered bad luck.
In America and Britain it is considered bad luck for a black cat to cross your path, however, if you stroke the cat's back four times take a step away from the cat, and spin three times, the bad luck is said to go away.
