I swear, there's nothing that makes me feel closer to our ancestors than knowing they loved and cared for their pets. It's just awesome to know that I could meet someone from 5000 years ago, and they'd immediately understand us doing the same.

I like that cat's attitude to humans also didn't change. Here's the picture of 15th century manuscript with cat:s paw prints.

One of the oldest examples of cat domestication is a grave from Cyprus where the cat was buried with its master.
