Meet Elspeth, the Highland Wild Cat. She is a regal creature often called the fierce "Highland Tiger." She comes from the northern region of Caithness, historically known in Gaelic as Caitaibh, meaning "Land of the Cats."
Highland Wild Cats have long been a symbol of independence and mystery. Some legends claimed that these cats were powerful sorcerers who could shape shift into a cat safely eight times, but on the ninth transformation, they would be trapped in feline form. Likely the origin for the superstition that cats have "nine lives."
Elspeth loves to prance around the Scottish Highlands in her fine winter coat. If you ever need directions over the hills of the Highlands, she likely knows the way.
