FOFL!!!

Our cat is actually a neighbor's cat. Tiger lives at his own house but naps at ours...on my husbands pillow. :oD

No! No! No! The Egyptians get all the credit for domesticating felines when it isn't true.

How do I know, you ask? Because fossilized skeletons of domesticated cats found on Cyprus are 7000 years old.

I'm betting that eventually it will be established that cats have been domesticated for almost as long as humans have been living in settled communities.

And with the recent discoveries of ancient cities underwater (last seeing air 15,000 years ago) most likely that date will continue to be pushed ever further back in time.

So who first domesticated cats? Probably the same bewildered people who first started eating oysters.

Just as long as his owner doesn't call him a traitor...
NiMH cat has his own 'other family' well trained.
But he sleeps here.... and eats here...

Kearen, the one who deigns to let me touch her paw, actually acts like we must worship her bulk. (She's 24 pounds..)
Please pray for us. We are owned by cats.
