They really didn't know what caused it at first then they found out it was the rats.

Another Answer:

It has been said to be many things that caused the black plague.

One theory was that the Jews who traveled from place to place brought it with them but they had built up an immunity to it.

Another theory is that the rats that came in on ships and such brought it and it easily spread to people.

Yet another theory is that the cats that ate the mice that had the plague came into people's homes as helpers and spread the disease.
