Topic	Mummified Cats - why was this a thing?

The didn't literally worship their animals, they "worshipped" them in the same way that we dote over our animals. This is true. They believed certain deities shared traits with the common cat, not the other way around of believing cats were deities. Egyptians just really fucking loved cats as pets. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR! Get Paid! <cite>StealThisSheen posted [p:974604345] in Mummified ...
