We all know that cats were once worshipped like gods, but over the years their reputation was tarnished. In the middle of the 14th Century, black cats became linked with the devil, so many of them were killed during the Black Death pandemic.

If greater numbers had been around, it’s likely that more people would have survived the plague.
