Just remembered where I got the impression that the cat licking it's
genitals was a mastuirbation or sex symbol. Saxtorph, in his "Danmarks
kalkmalerier", page 225 (Politikens Forlag, Copenhagen, 1986.) provides a
picture of the wall painting. A devil thrusts a torch towards the womens
genitals. Another devil collects fluid from her mouth in a cup.Immediately
below a cat is seen licking it's genitals.
Good hunting, Jim
