Is there a mythological name for a cat with wings?
The research I've done is strange to say the least. The wikipedia site mentions Norse Goddess Freyjas horse-sized winged blue cats drew her chariot. They were named Brygun and Trejgun. When I googled her and her cats everything came up the same except the wings. The symbol for St.Mark, the head of a lion with wings checked out: http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=... and an artistic version: http://www.web-access.net/~rterry/stmark... Here is the site of actual winged cats: http://www.messybeast.com/winged-cats.ht... Then there is the Griffin, Griffon, or Gryphon with the body of a lion and the head and wings of a bird at this site:http://www.angelfire.com/realm2/amethystbt/Mcgryphon.html and this site: http://monsters.monstrous.com/griffins.htm This site shows the head of Bast with wings, in the ears! http://www.catanna.com/bast.htm Then there are the tressym, winged cats, at this site: http://www.dotd.com/frms/fr_ms_015.htm Then it could be a Lammasu: Mesopotamian mythology, related to the Sphinx, Mesopotamian Cherub, Griffon, Manticore, and other “half-lion” creatures. That quote came from this site: http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?t=484550 Heraldry doesn't have a special name for a winged cat either. They simply refer to it as a "winged cat". Example: "Lewis MacGregor. Gules, a hookah Or, on a chief wavy argent a winged cat couchant guardant proper. " From this site: http://www.sca.org/heraldry/loar/1976/01/lar.html Here is a sample page of lions, some with wings: http://www.heraldryclipart.com/imagesamples/heraldry_lions.html The symbol for Mithras was supposed to be a lions head face on with wings (egyptian like) outstretched behind it, but I couldn't find an example. I did find this on a Tarot Card website. The name of the Mithras winged-cat is Aeon. Here is the site: http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?t=67411 Even the Celts had a version of the winged cat, they called it the Cat Sidhe or Cait Sith. Supposedly it's a winged black cat with a white spot on it's chest. When I tried to find it on a celtic site everything but the wings were mentioned. Bast, Brygun or Trejgun, St. Marks Lion, Griffin, Griffon, or Gryphon, Tressym, Lammasu, Aeon, Cait Sith take your pick. Best I could do, hun.
