Mysterious Power of Cats
Our Feline Friends have always been surrounded
by an aura of mystery.
Ancient Egyptians considered Cats Sacred.
Male cats were associated with the Sun God Ra
and Female Cats were associated with Bastet, the Godess of motherhood and fertility.
When Cats died the Egyptions
conducted elaborate funeral ceremonies to honor them.
In
addition, Officials always made certain that a Cat was present to bless
weddings, births and other occasions.
Cats were also considered powerful healers.
But Egypt wasn’t the only culture fascinated by
felix familiarus.
The Japanese Temple Cat was a holy creature
held in highest regard.
Black and White Kimono Cats were especially
esteemed
and
kept in the greatest luxury by Temple Monks who guarded them with their very
lives.
