The Myth
In the meadowlands below the village of Budersberg, a snow-white cat is said to appear on certain nights.
It is sometimes seen where the stream called the Gessel flows into the Brüllchen, but most often it shows itself in the middle of the marsh known as the Fäschtemsmoore. There it moves silently through the darkness and then vanishes again, leaving no trace behind.
Thus the people spoke of the white cat that haunted the meadows and marshes below Budersberg.
