I'm Allergic to Cat Fun-Facts

I'm really allergic to cats, which has lead me to pursue as much knowledge of my enemy as possible.

Did you know that the ancient Egyptians worshiped cats, and mummified them when they died? Frankly, I would have preferred to mummify them right away, to prevent my sinuses from flowing like the Nile river.

In 1888, an Egyptian farmer accidentally uncovered a large tomb outside the town of Beni Hasan, which contained around eighty thousand cat mummies dating back to 1000-2000 BCE. That hero to cat allergy sufferers like us did what any sane person would do, and set them all on fire.

Also, one time I watched The Mummy starring Brendan Fraser, and I set my sister on fire. Now it ALL MAKES SENSE!
