Black Cats and Halloween: The History Behind the Superstition
Food for Thought: The Joys and Benefits of Living Vegan - A podcast by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau
Categories:
Why are certain animals synonymous with Halloween — bats, rats, owls, spiders, ravens, crows, toads, wolves, and...black cats? Why are black cats associated with witches? Did Pope Gregory IX issue a papal bull during the 13th century that called for the mass extermination of black cats? What’s the history behind all of this, and what does it mean for us (and the animals) today? Join Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, your host, who explores all of this in today’s episode. —————— Support this podcast today at JoyfulVegan.com/Donate Visit my website: JoyfulVegan.com Join me on an all-inclusive vegan trip: JoyfulVeganTrips.com AFFILIATE PARTNERS: Nama Juicer — Use this link and coupon code COLLEEN10 and get 10% off my favorite juicer.
