Just in case you thought they were great cat-lovers: the Egyptians believed you could earn merit by mummifying a cat, so millions were slaughtered for this market. A Nova show some time ago showed that x-rays revealed the priests often cheated, putting only a few random bones in the package under the wrapping. When the British were in Egypt they excavated huge batches of cat mummies and used them as fertilizer.
We had two cats who spent their first weekend in full battle mode. At one point, I observed the older one chasing the younger one around the living room, sideways, without touching furniture or the floor.
And now I know that man learned to parkour by watching cats.

A cat once showed me just where to look to see what she was seeing. I sure don’t see cats in the same way now.
Although most are just freeloading on their rep.

Shaved eyebrows? So you had a civilization of people who looked like Henry, of comic strip lore?

Cats were also revered because ancient Egypt was an agrarian society and cats kept vermin at bay.

Suck up free loaders WITH mystical powers… It just turns out none of their mystical powers are geared towards practical human uses.

They aren’t freeloaders; they contribute food. If you don’t want to eat those dead mice and birds, that’s your problem!

Shaving a dead cat’s eyebrows is just weird.
