Description: Photograph Notes: A detail from [[[1985810]]] In the Welsh law cats were assigned value according to age and hunting ability and the penalties for killing one reflected their worth. The value of a cat, fourpence. The value of a kitten from the night it is born until it opens its eyes, a legal penny; and from then until it kills mice, two legal pence; and after it kills mice, four legal pence, and at that it remains forever. Her properties are to see and hear and kill mice, and that her claws are not broken, and to rear kittens; and if she is bought, and any of those are wanting, a third of her value is to be returned. The value of a cat which guards a kings barn, if killed or stolen: her head is set down upon a clean level floor, and her tailis raised up, and wheat grains are poured over her until they hide the end of her tail. That will be her value; if the grain is not obtained, a milking ewe with her lamb and her wool. From The Law of Hywel Dda, trans.
