        Yep, the n-word kitty.

        If you are curious, you can read more about the man and find him nearly frightened by his own shadow, thus filled with hate and bias to the brim. His fragile antics are probably why he wrote a lot of foundational horror stories. Guy was clearly unwell in the head department, and although it gave us a lot of creative lit, all of it is stained with things he was himself afraid of.

          And it’s even worse than it being the name of his real cat- he also named a cat in one of his stories that. So anyone just reading his works can encounter it.
