Old fears linked cats, especially black ones, with magic and bad luck. Some people came to see the cat as a companion of WITCHES, and this SUPERSTITION brought cruelty. Across many towns, cats were FEARED, HUNTED, and KILLED in large numbers.\n\nThere may have been a terrible price for this fear. Cats are a natural enemy of the RAT, and rats carried the fleas that spread THE PLAGUE. The Black Death struck Europe in 1346, and with fewer cats to control them, rat numbers could climb. Historians still debate how much this mattered, but one lesson stands: CRUELTY usually grows out of fear and ignorance. Only slowly did people again welcome the cat as a friend and a hunter.\n\nSpell: BELIEVED   MYSTERY   SHADOWS   FRIGHTS\n\nWhat word names a belief in magic or bad luck that is not based on facts?   SUPERSTITION\n\nWhat deadly disease was spread by fleas carried on rats?   THE PLAGUE\n\nSome people in medieval Europe came to see the cat as what?   A COMPANION OF WITCHES\n\nThe Black Death struck Europe in the year ___.   1346\n\nSuppose a town had 200 cats, and fear led people to kill 85 percent of them.

Old fears linked cats, especially black ones, with magic and bad luck. Some people came to see the cat as a companion of WITCHES, and this SUPERSTITION brought cruelty. Across many towns, cats were FEARED, HUNTED, and KILLED in large numbers.\n\nThere may have been a terrible price for this fear. Cats are a natural enemy of the RAT, and rats carried the fleas that spread THE PLAGUE. The Black Death struck Europe in 1346, and with fewer cats to control them, rat numbers could climb. Historians still debate how much this mattered, but one lesson stands: CRUELTY usually grows out of fear and ignorance.

Most hauntingly, the bodies of the victims had rotted away inside the hardened ash, leaving hollow spaces.
