- Wears a porcelain mask and priest robes
- Wears red leather gloves
- Wields a long staff with an iron, hollow head on one end, that contains catnip and belladonna. Touching cats with the staff is believed to neutralize the disease for half a day
- Killing a cat is forbidden, as it will release the disease - it is better for it to be contained within the cat and neutralized
- Prays twice a day by repeatedly saying gatto morbus conrigo, and purring
