    In the short story The Black Cat‚ there are a few symbols represented throughout the story. The one that I think is the most interesting is the Black Cat itself. This cat is always around when things relate back to when the man abused and killed his former cat Pluto. The cat also reminds the man of Pluto by the way it looks and acts. The narrator might feel guilty about what he had done to Pluto and as a result seeing these similarities in this new cat‚ or the cat only serves the purpose to help

    Edgar Allen Poe’s The Black Cat‚ much like many of his other stories‚ is a tale of inexplicable violence and perverseness‚ and yet it is an amazing insight into the mind’s ability to observe itself and even give itself away‚ as evidenced in end of the tale of the narrator.

The readers of this short story get to hear it in first person point of view from the main
