adopt a cat mummy


Cat mummies are up for adoption at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. The idea is part of the Animal Mummy project which is trying to raise funds for the conservation of the mummies. If you can spend $100, you can adopt a small crocodile, a cat, a dog, an ibis, a horus falcon, or a large snake. If your funds are more limited, say $25 is your top limit, you can still adopt a mummified crocodile egg or a tasty food mummy. NO you'll not be getting your mummy in the mail :)
