Did a Cat Hating Pope Cause the Black Death?
The Black Death, The plague, The Apocalypse. This 14th century event was the deadliest known pandemic in human history. And it also led to one of the most senseless massacres of all time. No, I'm not talking about the tens to possibly hundreds of millions of dead people. And I'm not talking about ethnic cleanings that occured against jews and gypsies, who were of course blamed for the whole thing. No, in this video we'll talk about the hundreds of thousands of cats that were murdered and how this mistake changed the world forever.
