Guy Can’t Get His Cat To Sit In The Circle, But Then Discovers Something Frightening About His Cat
1.2Mviews
They say that cats are demons – so this kitty owner decided to test something for himself. First, he drew a circle to see if his feline would care to sit in it. Nope, no reaction at all. Then he tried the same thing by drawing a square. Still, no response. Finally, the guy drew something that looks similar to a pentagram – and guess what – that did the trick! The next second, the fur ball was already sitting in the middle of it.
Is it a coincidence or proof that the things people say about cats are true? What’s your take on it? Do you feel like cuddling this kitty or running away from it to save your life?
(h/t)
They say that cats are demons – so this kitty owner decided to test something…
He drew different geometric shapes, but his cat chose something that looked like a pentagram
After this ‘frightening’ proof, do you still have doubts cats are ‘evil’?

That's a great idea bored panda. Let's encourage people to avoid adopting black cats and to torment them because they are "evil". The poor things get enough grief and have the lowest adoption rates among cats at the shelter because of peoples fears and superstitions about them.
Thank you for pointing that out. You are absolutely right. It was not our original intention, and we have already corrected the article.
How about taking the article down? It puts cats in a very dangerous light. It doesn't matter if you corrected it. The image is a black cat, more people are going to associate black cats with being evil now, thanks to you. Fuck you bored panda. I love my sweet baby boy kitty. Cats are NOT evil. The ignorant people who don't know any better are.
What have you done to "correct" this? It's still stating that black cats are evil, I agree with other commenters that you should remove this post because you're propagating this delusional prejudice against these perpetually maligned creatures.
I love my black cats! They are sweet and special, there's nothing evil about them. I always adopt black cats because of the image articles like this give them. I agree with Ben et al. This should be taken down.
If you mean that you 'corrected' this article by putting 'various' 'words' in 'quotes,' disagree. Please take it down!
It's clearly meant to be a joke but there are many people in the internet who believe black cats bring bad luck. Because of that they may take it too literally and give black cats an even worse reputation, which is why this is not a very smart thing to do. Do you even believe in "people who take jokes too literally?"
No, admin, NO. They are NOT "absolutely right"! They are deranged commenters who can't take a fucking joke because you called the widdle puddy tat "evil". Get a fucking life, people. You can't grasp the concept of a joke? About a CAT? A CAT?!?!?!? Fucking cat people.
I have two black cats and they are the most loving and sweet cats I ever had.
how have you "corrected" the article??? it is still reading clearly dangerous to me! just take it DOWN already, for fox snakes! it is horribly ignorant!
You shouldn't have to fix anything just because these people go over the top.
Don't listen to this oversensitive idiocy!!!!!

Your stupid, shitty article is still here admin. Are you gonna take that down or should we go further...?
Dead right Ben - still don't get why black cats in USA have such a bad press - over here in UK - they are simply black cats.
It's not just in the US...
You are so right. Clearly this is meant as a joke BUT there are so many people out there who really really believe that black cats bring bad luck. Not a very smart thing to post.
I own a black cat named Charlotte and she is the sweeetest ball of fur you'd ever meet. When I pet the base of her tail she flicks her tongue everywhere because she loves it so much. When you don't give her attention she starts to pitifully meow until she gets love. And when you pet her she purrs very loudly and nuzzles you all over. Also she tends to lick you at times as a sign of affection. Black cats aren't evil. They're misunderstood.
If you are so narrow minded, to believe this kind of crap, then you shouldn't adopt a cat at all, or any other animal. Invest in yourself, maybe.
Seriously.
Bingo.
I live in Portugal and was shocked to find out a few months ago, while volunteering for a kennel in my hometown, that they stopped allowing adoptions of any animals on Fridays the 13th, because some ass-backwards people still practice voodoo and cast hexes/evil-eyes in this country and these cockwaffles will adopt animals, especially black animals, mostly on Fridays the 13th, specifically to sacrifice them usually with the "noble" intent of making bad things happen to other people. So, if in the US people avoid adopting black animals, I'd say that's still not as bad as what happens in this otherwise beautiful, supposedly 1st World country which unfortunately is still, clearly clearly very backwards in certain cultural aspects.
Flora, I live in the US, and our shelter doesn't allow black cat (or dog) adoptions the week before Halloween. For the same reason the kennel you volunteer for doesn't do F13 adoptions. Some people can be simply horrible human beings.
Like Hufflepants said, none of the shelters in my area will let you adopt black cats around Halloween or Friday 13. A lot of really, really sick people out there. For the same reason, people lock their goats in the barn. That said, my black cat is my service cat. Among other things, he warns me if my blood sugar gets too high. He walks on a leash. People always come up to me and tell me how gorgeous he is. Certainly isn't bad luck for me!
I live in Portugal too and I didn't know that. Now I'm just scared. And a few years ago I got a black cat in friday, September 13th. Months later my neighbour said my cat was attacked by a dog and died. I got sad because in that week he hadn't return home. So I buried the cat and 5 minutes later my cat came up to me. Long story short I buried the wrong cat or cats really have 7 lives. I know it has nothing to do with your comment but everytime I remember this story I find it funny. And still don't know whose cat is buried in my backyard.
Well well well.... if thye dont want them.... GIVE ME ALL THE BLACK CATS my friends already call me lucifer so why not. i love em to bits!
You took the words right out of my mouth. Some moron needs to get their head out of their a** and think before posting. Horrible post and will no longer follow after I pass this on to more Advocates for Cats
BenDugas, that is the truth. I adopted a beautiful, precious black kitty in 2014 from an animal rescue group in Wisconsin & because she was all black I paid only a small pitance (which included her licensing). They told me black cats are most difficult to find homes for. Plus they said they do not allow anyone to adopt black cats in October due to Halloween & weirdo's who want to do horrible things to black cats such as "sacrificial rituals". That's seriously SICK! My beautiful Dorothy is the love of my life & a perfect "roommate". She's now almost 8 yrs of age & I wouldn't part with her for anything.
Yes, screw that. The one black cat in my life has my heart and I'll always associate black fur balls with love and affection.
Don't worry. There are enough evil worshipping people.
I for one appreciate black cats, evil or not
It's not just black cats, it's cats in general. People really do believe cats are evil and this isn't helping. People saying take it as a joke, I understand that it's a joke, but cats have a low rate of being wanted and this stuff with those crazy superstitious people will freak about this which hurt the cats more with having a good home. Just like pit bulls. There's bad in every breed, there's bad in everything just like people. People just like to point it out in everything which is why this isn't the best post
Ben Dugas, if people are dumb enough to really believe black cats are "evil," they better not get any pets at all. With that stupid mind who knows what other stupid things they could do to those animals.
that does not prove she is evil... YOU SIT INSIDE A PENTACLE TO PROTECT YOURSEF FROM EVIL AS IT KEEPS EVIL SPIRITS AND DEMONS OUTSIDE IT! Just a sensible wee puss taking precautions!
exactly I was always taught that a pentacle protect from evil and negative energies - sensible kitty - and black cats are more affectionate and loving than any other cats I've ever had - mine seems to understand the old girl we allowed to move in is crotchety and sometimes just snappy and has never retaliated even when she has spat and swiped at him when he walked past her or was eating his dinner and he's brilliant at defusing hubby and I's disagreements and spats too
Do you really want someone taking care of an animal who's so stupid that they'd avoid a black one because of superstition? It helps weed out the idiot potential owners. I think this article is just fine.
It is a freaking joke Jesus holy shit calm down, it ain't even a real pentagram that is a fuckin STAR! Someone probably would have lost their shit if it was a brown cat or grey or white, just shut up and enjoy the funny joke.
*Oversensitive not overseen sitting* Well I've embarrassed myself enough today, not like it matters I'll get a crap ton of downvotes anyway.
Why is this posting to everything?!
Why is this posting to every comment? I apologize I agree that not adopting black animals just Becuase some idiot said that they were evil is stupid, I meant to say this to the overseen siting people.
I agree with you Ben!! It was interesting though.
You all need to get lives.
Really Tina, it's a damn joke the only place I've heard of black cats being evil is in America, it's just a cat, dumb owner probably put it there or its fake.
I so totally agree with your viewpoint. Ignorance continues to run rampant in the hearts of many people's and these types of postings only serve to perpetuate lies that can lead to harm. Shame on the author for his/her lack of sensitivity and lack of insight!
Learn to take a joke people! For fucks sake
Seriously.
Black dogs, too, unfortunately. Apparently they don't "photograph well"...
Yall need to chill out! This makes me WANT a cat, and NOT to torture it. You pc retards will turn anything into a crusade. People are responsible for their own actions, not an article they read. Climb out of your safe space and lighten up.

The only cats I wouldn't adopt are tabby cats. I already have 2. I see tabby cats everywhere and they look all the same. In the lost/found cats sites there are so many and you can't say if the lost tabby is the found tabby...

Oh, I thought the cat rearranged the tape into the pentagram... that would have been unexpected!

I had a very large black cat for 14 years and he was the mellowest, non-frightening cat I ever had.
I have 3 black cats rightnow, and same, they're the sweetest.
You mean, "right meow" 😂

Mine is a jerk. Bites and scratches.
