Perdo is training his cats to walk in different shapes to form writing and pictographs.

Cats are evil. They're an absolute menace. And good Yeenoghu deterrent.
"Not these ones, they're sickeningly friendly," One keeps rubbing itself up against his elbow as he tries to drink his wine. He swears quietly.
You have no idea where you got them? Why not just leave them at some random animal shelter? Or throw them into a bottomless pit?

"But... did it?"
"No... All superstition... And even if it did work, thats not worth a childs life..."

Paladins are rooted in devotion. They can't suddenly turn. Introduce them to truth slowly, until you can lead them into a rabbit hole of doubt. If you approach this person with the appearance that you've given up trying to turn them and befriend them instead, they're more likely to understand. Show them only what supports you, and introduce counterarguments that you can disprove. For example, the sins of gods typically seen as good.

A young man with a pendant of a wolf eating the sun is drinking at the bar.
"Interesting pendant there," He says to them
"So everyone says." He doesn't look up from his drink.
"A wolf eating the sun, huh? Where did you get it?" Taiken asks
"I don't know." He glanced at him irritably. "Everyone here is incredibly nosy."
"Oh, sorry that public environments be a bit to public for you"
He drank from his mug. "Everywhere's too public. Everything would be better off if people just minded their own business."
"You know, i can agree to that"
"Finally. A reasonable sentence." He paused. "What's your name?"
"Taiken. Whats yours?"
"Mihir. Is the similarity to the word 'taken' on purpose?"
