"The Black Cat"

The first black cat Pluto. His name in ancient Roman mythology means king of the underworld, ruling over the abode of the dead.In Greek mythology, which the Romans based their mythology,Pluto was called Hades.So Pluto the black cat, seems to symbolized death to the narrator. When he gave the cat that name it suggest that he thought its a sinister Creator from the moment he saw the black cat. in this book you can tell that the narrator is obviously deranged. also it could do with his drinking how drinking worsened an existing mental condition.I think that the narrator killed the cat also because, the cat fallowed him everywhere and he probable got bugged by it.
