I suppose you would find many things of interest here: Search content of DrikPanchang.com
The special days are Kali Chaturdashi and Sandhi Puja, the time when ashtami changes into navami. But I do not find any particular day of the week or month dedicated to Goddess Kali. IMHO, what is considered auspicious for Mother Durga should be considered auspicious in case of Mother Kali also. However, other members of the forum may have something more to say about this.

Acc. to Devi MahAtmya (a.k.a. ChanDi pATh) section of MArkanDeya purAN KAli manifested on ashTami, from DurgA's adnyA chakra (third eye).
Regarding DurgA -- the composite shakti of VishweDeva (all Devas) -- DurgA is primarily VishNu's shakti , combined with shakti of all Devas (Indra...) - which in turn are parts/aspects of NArAyaN-VishNu... So the combining was not in time acc. to me.
Also because VishNu initiated this.
People equate DurgA = pArvatI which is OK, because Adi-Shakti is One, and the rahasya-trayam says the secret original Adi-Shakti which "created" the Tri-Dev-N-Tri-Devis per BramhAnDa (acc. to mArkanDeya purAN) is MahALakshmi ! Which is Shri . The mahAlakshmi of KolhApur is that.
Which circles back to the fact that DurgA is primarily MahAVishNu's shakti i.e. MahALakshmi
