Fans Horrified as Melissa Joan Hart Mistreats Black Cat Toy in Video: Shocking Reactions

Melissa Joan Hart caused a stir with an Instagram video that upset cat lovers and fans of Sabrina the Teenage Witch.

In the video, she playfully tossed a stuffed black cat before switching to petting a real dog, all set to the theme music from her show.

Despite her assurance that no harm came to the stuffed cat, some viewers expressed their disapproval in the comments.

Responding to the backlash, Hart clarified in an Instagram Story that the stuffed cat was unharmed and simply a prop she uses for fun.

She emphasized that the cat in the video was not Salem from the show but a toy she bought for Comic Con.

Despite the controversy, Hart reassured her followers that everything was fine and shared the light-hearted nature of her video.
