Did you know that cats have long been tied to witchcraft in folklore? In medieval Europe, cats—especially black ones—were seen as familiars, supernatural helpers or even demons in disguise that assisted witches in their spells (famously, one 16th-century English trial featured a cat named "Sathan" who supposedly carried out a witch's bidding after being fed her blood!). Pope Gregory IX's 1233 decree Vox in Rama linked black cats to devil worship, sparking fears that led to their persecution alongside accused witches. Yet earlier myths revered them: the Greek goddess Hecate (of magic and the moon) had feline companions, and Norse goddess Freya rode a chariot pulled by mighty cats. The idea of cats having nine lives even originated in 1584 folklore as the number of times a witch could shapeshift into feline form! Celebrate this rich, magical heritage with our spellbinding cat pattern—ideal for fabric, wallpaper, gifts, or custom creations that purr with mystery and charm. Embrace the meow-gic today!
