Im a Latin VuDu Pagan n I belive tis is not about making Spirits go away it has to see with Egyptians, dont they even shower the Cats with Gold n burry them with the woners. I want my Cat to B burry wit me cuz She is my Vessel my Ears I hold a Hidden code to transmutate part of my mind to my Cat n my Dolls I sence the currents of the Magnetic Fields n the underground Water Flows. Im very primitive yet I know Facts that Cience is far of. My people Knows From the Pyramides. I know the Fith Element n others around the Planet do too but they still f***in up n dont worry much Yesterdays WitchCraft will B soon a tool for every1 to use so we regain balance with the Universe n sure we will Dance Naked Under the Lite of the Full Moon n our Children will Live over 500 years n money n Orthodoxy Dogmatic Religions will be erradicate….Bless U B all n everything.

I’m so excited — Jules has kindly sent me a photograph of the dead cat “Lucky” found in Ireland, and given permission to share it with you.

I’ll be posting it later today.

No worries, though, if you’re a bit on the squeamish side about such things — discreet thumbnail versions of the photograph will protect the finer sensibilities… and the curious types can click through to take a closer look.

After reading the linked article at oldhouses.com, I’m thinking this all ties in with Halloween, somehow, what with the cat and the witch and warding off evil spirits.

That’s Halloween, alright: the one night a year when the dearly departed undesirables return to their “old” homes.

The fly in the Cupid’s Oil Lamp is the prevalence of those old shoes in the chimney. Sounds like Christmas, to me :)

Cheers,

Mitch

Jules, the idea of your dead Irish cat travelling about the UK rather intrigues me – any chance you have a photograph of it?

I have only just found out about dried cats. Foolishly I brought the one that dropped out of the roof in my old cottage in Ireland back to England. Now I really think I should take it back – what on earth will Ryanair make of it?

wow! our house is only 10 years old, so all we had was bad decorating, lack of maintenance and filth to deal with when we bought it – nothing as weird as a dead cat carcass (would have been easier and cheaper to get rid of)
