Cat in Java

Cats are the animals which can survive and live with human beings. Since Ancient Egypt, they have became our friends. In many cultures, people respect cats. In Japanese tradition, cat ( manekineko) is symbol of luck.

In Java, even if there are many cats without masters or many people do not care about cats, people respect cat because the saints love cats and people will get bad karma if they kill the cats.

If someone's vehicle hits a cat, he will bury the cat or in the village tradition, they will conduct circle prayer for the cat's death.

I love the cat, not because of magical power or luck charm. I love cat because they are warm, friendly, funny.

I have fable story about : A Deaf Cat with Blue eyes

It is not traditional story but it can be inspirational.
