Share your favorite cat-related folklore and mythology!
Have you ever heard of the Yule Cat, Jólakötturinn? It eats people who didn't get new clothes to wear for the winter! It's an Icelandic myth that of course supports the local commerce and encourages people to support the wool industry, but it's also fascinating and fun to study.
It seems like every culture has some kind of myth around cats, from the creatures being blamed for causing Black Death to the Japanese maneki-neko, or "beckoning cat," that brings luck. And of course cats were even gods in some cultures.
