Are you looking for cat patterns on a black background?

Either way, the best place to search is the internet, but most of the patterns I've found so far, are not detailed. Usually I have to buy the detailed ones.

There is a computer program for sale (my Mother has it) where you can turn scanned pictures into cross stitch patterns. link I've turned two pictures into patterns, but they're ridiculously detailed and it would take me years to complete even one of them.

Thanks for the tip about the computer program, I found a free one but as you say, they are so detailed. Blackwork is stitched in black thread, there are paintings of Queen Elizabeth 1 with beautiful blackwork detail on her dress.
Thanks for your tips
