Cat Haters Beware

"It is said that in Ulthar, which lies beyond the river Skai, no man may kill a cat; and this I can verily believe as I gaze upon him who sitteth purring before the fire. For the cat is cryptic, and close to strange things which man cannot see."

Once upon a time in Ulthar, before said law was put into action, there lived a sinister old couple who delighting in slaying any unlikely cat that straggled upon their property. This is a tale about two despicable, horrible, awful people who get exactly what is coming to them. I hated them but loved this creepy, atmospheric tale of revenge.

Rethink your cover art choice

Well..this story is in the public domain and free online. No worries, I like reprints too. However I am agog regarding the idea that two lions having sex is the 'hook' to sell a Lovecraft story about housecats.
