OK....
This is from the book "Rivals", on scientific rivalry. It has a chapter on the discovery of oxygen and the debunking of phlogiston, and here is a quote from the book by Lavoisier, who, while not the actual discoverer of oxygen, was the first to actually figure out what it was (emphasis added by me):
Antoine Lavoisier wrote:
Chemists had made phlogiston a vague principle, which is not strictly defined and which consequently fits all the explanations demanded of it. Sometimes it has weight, sometimes it is fire combined with earth; sometimes it passes through the pores of vessels, sometimes these are impenetrable to it. It explains at once causticity and non-causticity, transparency and opacity, colour and the absence of colour. It is a veritable Proteus that changes its form every instant!
Your great cat god is very much like phlogiston as described by Lavoisier, and has about as much chance of existing as more than just a stupid meme.
