Yes, I know we need the rain. I live here. Explanations varied. That hardly seems plausible. Another theory is that violent rainfalls caused olden-day-style storm drains to back up, spilling out the carcasses.
That is horrible and, besides, floodwater washing dogs and cats down the street is hardly the same as dogs and cats falling from the sky. The answer I like best suggests the notion comes from Norse mythology, where cats were believed to bring the rain, and dogs were associated with wind. Much better. That sounds like some storm! In Greece, there are chair legs falling from the clouds. Frogs have beards? How delightfully disturbing. Stay dry.
