What events from the black cat seem to prove wife and superstition about cats be correct?

The following events from "The Black Cat" seem to prove the wife's superstition about cats to be correct:

- The narrator's wife initially shows a strong dislike for the black cat, Pluto, and warns her husband that it is a bad omen.

- After the narrator hangs Pluto in a fit of rage, a series of misfortunes befall him. His house burns down, he loses his job, and his wife dies in a mysterious accident.

- The narrator becomes increasingly haunted by the image of Pluto, and he eventually begins to believe that the cat is responsible for his misfortunes.

- In a final act of desperation, the narrator seeks out the black cat and brutally murders it. However, this only serves to further his descent into madness and despair.

These events suggest that the wife's superstition about cats may indeed have been correct. Pluto's presence in the narrator's life seems to bring about a series of negative consequences, and his death only worsens the situation. This suggests that cats may indeed possess some kind of supernatural power, and that it is unwise to cross them.
