There’s a Scottish clan whose slogan translates to “Touch not the cat, but with a glove”.

I always got a kick out of that.

My dad says their slogan means “Be wary”.

I didn’t think they even had wild cats in Scotland.

My clan’s slogan is “Dread God”, which I think is awesome.

It means to have a overarching respect for God, not necessarily dread per se. Liberal members do not like it and have said so. Toughski Shitski, they were told!

“Touch not the cat...” I think that is the Sutherland slogan.
