Hopkins says he and nine other witnesses saw the first five of these, which appeared in the forms described by the witch. Only the first of these was in the form of a cat; the next two were dogs, and the others were a black rabbit and a polecat—so Pyewacket was presumably not a cat's name.

The above is copied adn pasted from the article. Im wondering if anyone can offer a reason why Pyewacket is presumably not a cats name? The first five were supposedly seen in the forms described above, but how does that indicate that Pyewacket was not a cat?

It's presumably a reference to Pyewacket the cat in "Bell Book and Candle" -- which then became a popular cat's name for while. However, this isn't obvious. It's a godawful article, typical low quality wikipedia work. The text appears to be stolen verbatim from ImDB. There are no references, and it's totally lacking in facts. All it's missing is a gratuitous reference to a band and it will be perfect wikiality. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.141.215.131 (talk) 18:37, 19 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
