They say cat has nine lives.
This story began in the Inquisition, where witches, wizards, redheads, homosexuals, Jews, Muslims and cats were evil. Pope Gregory IX, stated in the papal bull that devilish black cat, "evil color and shame", had come to the world for the unhappiness of men. As wizards lived isolated and surrounded by many cats, the church began to associate the cats to darkness because of their nocturnal habits, and claimed to have part with the devil, especially black.
Try as they might exterminate the kittens, they kept hanging around there, as lovers of cats bred cats secret, preventing the species disappear. It was so the inquisitors had even more "certainty" that meow was demon corner and therefore, would have seven lives.
Modern mystics say that they have the ability to energize their environment.

Amazing how she, the cat, has a similar personality to Pagu. But who was Pagu? Patrícia Galvão, the Pagu, was one of the most controversial female figures in Brazilian history in the twentieth century. Born into a bourgeois family in 1910, Pagu moved away from their social class, passing the military from the Brazilian Communist Party, which yielded more than 20 arrests.
His story was permeated actions that blasphemed the society of the time. Rebel and engaged scandalized the neighbors with their short skirts and painted red mouth at a time when the rule for the girls of good family was to marry well and be a good wife, mother and homemaker.
