Cait Sith Coig

The Cait Sìth (also: Cat Sídhe, Scottish Gaelic for Cat Fairy) is a fairy creature from Scottish mythology, said to resemble a large black cat with a white spot on its breast. Legend has it that the spectral cat haunts the Scottish Highlands. Some common folklore suggested that the Cat Sìth was not a fairy, but a transformed witch.

In Scottish Gaelic, còig is the cardinal number five.
