Trivia

 * Cats are often linked to magic in several cultures, particularly with witches.
 * Cats gathering in the town of Ulthar is a reference to the short story The Cats of Ulthar, by American author H.P. Lovecraft. The town is noted in the story for having a very explicit law that "in Ulthar, no man may kill a cat."
 * There is an old saying that cats have nine lives. This is thought to have originated with the Scottish cat sidhe myths, which make mention of a large, spectral black cat with a white patch on its chest. The cat sidhe was said to be either one of the fae, or a type of witch that had the ability to shapeshift into a cat nine times. If a tenth try was attempted, the witch would be trapped in their cat form permanently.
