<p>212.219.189.10: </p> <hr /> <div>sitc4ttrd<br /> == Cat ([[animal]])==<br /> The '''cat''' is a quadraped mammal of the genus, ''Felis''. They are effective hunters, being valued in [[period]] and since for their ability to reduce vermin. However [[pet|domesticated]] cats were less common than [[dog]]s during the [[medieval]] period as cats were very often regarded with suspicion. Cats were sometimes contained in [[wicker]] effigies and burnt because they were perceived as manifestations of evil. They were also skinned on occasions for their [[fur]], either for warmth or as decoration and [[clothing|fashion]] accessory and in times of [[famine]] they provided [[meat]] for the [[table]] (in a rather terminal way).<br /> <br /> [[Exeter]] [[cathedral]] had an official cat. <br /> <br /> Some individuals have an intense dislike of this [[animal]], although most had some affection as the [[15th century]] &quot;''The Book of Curtesy''&quot; reminds us not to pet the cat whilst at the [[table]].<br /> <br /> Cats are uncommon as a [[heraldic]] [[charge]]. When they are seen it is frequently in a ''[[dormant]]'' [[posture|pose]].<br /> <br /> ''See Also''<br /> * [[Cat (Maplet)|Cat according to Maplet's ''A Greene Forest'']]<br /> <br /> [[category:animal]]<br /> [[category:food]]<br /> <br /> ==Cat ([[Siege Engine]])==<br /> A '''cat''' is a sturdy mobile shed used in a [[siege]]. It is designed to roll towards an enemy fortification and provide cover for [[sapper]]s to undermine the wall. Unlike a [[pavise]], they provided cover from above, making them ideal for use directly beneath a defended wall.<br /> <br /> Often, [[battering ram]]s were protected by a cat while they advanced.</div>
