The cat has always been a favorite prey to the sly and nimble mummy. In the jungle depths of the Congo a mummy will perch silently in a tree for hours waiting for an opportunity to strike. Ever the picky hunter, the patient mummy alertly observes the ground below. Eventually, a lazy cat twists around trees and through shrubbery. Perking it’s ears and looking about, it stops for a moment. That moment is just what the mummy needs.

A flash of green and the cat is struck by an ancient Egyptian curse. Dazed, it is now a simple task for the mummy to slowly wrap it’s victim in it’s natural silken bandages. When it is completely enveloped, the cat is lifted up into the canopy of the tall jungle trees where it is left, sometimes with other catches, to cure for weeks. The mummy’s natural production of salt is steeped into it’s bandages to preserve and add flavor to it’s future meal.
