Blog with a cat #002: The weasel among the hyenas by Ruby the Cat 2017-01-21

Meow,

Did you watch the inauguration?

Meow!

There were no cats there! There were a loooooooooooooot of hyenas. Many hyenas and one weasel.

Weasels, members of this genus are small, active predators, with long and slender bodies and short legs.

In Greek tradition, a weasel near one’s house is a sign of bad luck, even evil, “especially if there is in the household a girl about to be married”, since the animal (based on its Greek etymology) was thought to be an unhappy bride who was transformed into a weasel and consequently delights in destroying wedding dresses.

In Japan, weasels were seen as yōkai from time immemorial, and they cause various strange occurrences. According to the encyclopaedia Wakan Sansai Zue from the Edo period, a nate of weasels would cause conflagrations, and the cry of a weasel was considered a harbinger of misfortune.

The name of this weasel? Paul Ryan. The man who paved the road to Donald, the evil weasel!
