| This white cat of long smooth hair is hardly visible upon a white sheet. He has hidden between the sheets of a bed. The tame cat was rare in Europe until after A.D. 1000. In European
superstition the cat was usually an evil spirit rather than a god. The devil was often
pictured as a black cat and the familiar spirits of witches were supposed to take the shape of
cats. Even today some people believe that a black cat crossing their path will bring them bad
luck. |
