    Sacred Cats doesn't give enough of an increase in food to lower the animations needed to reach 30 food at a lot of the tiers of farming. That's why it doesn't seem to give anything, but working as intended. It is same with Adze of Wepwawet and Hand axe.
    Also if you want help with these hit me up. A lot of the testing had been done in text form so I'm sure it'll be easier for you to have all the resources :p

      And also, for animal-lovers, the way of starting your economy without any guilty conscience. I always hate when starting food source of map is either docile huntables or chicken/ducks (though I found a way to cheat that feel of guilt with wild boars, where they at least have a way to defend themselves, and fishing ships, where I at least dont see that act per se. I know it sounds a bit hypocritical, but come on, how would I be able to play and enjoy AoM otherwise?) and when enemy godpower in Mythic Age kills majority or even all of my precious herdable pets (f**king Fimbulwinter!). So yeah, not a kind of competitive player at all xD

Does it imprison both psyches in one body? Does it send mount painlessly into afterlife while turning the rider or vice versa?). I love this aspect of poetic justice most in case of Atlantean god power Spider Lair. As an arachnophobe, I find a death by being eaten by giant spider very grim. But in case of those batards that keep raiding my town, I mock them with satisfaction. A bit sadistic? Yes.
