Just put the treats in the bag, walk away slowly
and no one gets hurt!
It's just little ole me, Minnie, helping Mom unload the groceries - not really demon. But have you heard the story of the the demon cat in the Capitol in DC?
There are many stories circulating about a black cat who appears in the building as an omen before national tragedies like presidential assassinations. As the tale goes, the cat appears as a normal sized black cat to either a night watch person or security guard and grows right in front of them into a large creature with glowing eyes. The legend of the demon cat states that the cat made an appearance before the Lincoln and Kennedy assassinations, before the 1929 stock market crash and on 9/10/01. It seems there are even cat paw prints in the cement at the Capitol! So is there a demon or is this just another black cat story gone wild?
We like the idea of a demon cat - stay posted for more spooky stories and photos this week through Halloween!

Black kitties get such a bad rap -- especially around this time of year.
ReplyDeleteWe happen to know that Minnie is a real sweetheart, but she certainly does bump up that Hallowe'en allure.
Ooooh! Scary! Treats in bag then Retreats!
