Freya (also Frija) is the Scandinavian goddess of love and fertility (both animal and the land) and the wife of Odr or Ottar. She rode in a chariot pulled by two cats the size of lions. An early form of Freya was Frya, an earth goddess. Some cat fanciers like to identify Freya&#39;s cats as Norwegian Forest Cats. Freya had a fondness for fairies and that breed is also known as the Fairy cat.-of course!!
