What animal was first used as a witch's familiar?

Most likely, the first (and most well-known) familiar would be a cat, but really any animal could be a familiar. During the Burning Times, any animal that was commonly seen with the "witch" could be a familiar, or any animal that seemed to be doing "suspicious" things- listening to a conversation, say, or perhaps a dog that bit at a townsperson. Also, if an animal was injured (say, it's a cat that got caught in a trap) and then the "witch" turned up with an unexplained injury, that was supposed to be a clear sign of witchcraft, and a sign that the witch was using the familiar to do that witchcraft.
