The association with witchcraft is an old European belief brought to America, especially heightened during the Salem witch trials in the 1690’s. During those times, many women accused of witchcraft were believed to have turned into black cats so that they could do evil things. Some lore believes that witches kept black cats to serve as their familiars, offering companionship and spiritual protection. A familiar is a supernatural companion. 🐈‍⬛ 🐈‍⬛ 🐈‍⬛ #blackcat #folklore #spookyszn | Naturali
