Generations ago, they were revered as gods; a single bite could kill a cat and their paws shook the earth when they hunted. Now, they are feared, both in legends and in reality. Many have fallen to their jaws. They are savages, unpredictable, irrational, unnatural. The greatest punishment to be inflicted on a cat is to be forced into their skin.
