  • One night, in a drunken stupor, the narrator thinks Pluto is avoiding him, so he seizes him and cuts out one of his eyes. He is ashamed in the present of his deed, but back then, his shame only lasted a short while. Pluto, of course, avoided the narrator and the narrator began to be irritated by this.

He searches for a new cat, and finds a large black one with a white splotch on its chest.

  • The narrator walls his wife up within the the cellar. The cat seems to have fled, and the narrator sleeps peacefully for the first time in a long time.
