Cats

The domestic cat or house cat is a small domesticated animal that is beautiful and confident. It is
often kept as an indoor pet. Cats are often valued by humans for companionship and their ability
to hunt rats, lizards and all sorts of household pests. A genetic study in 2007 revealed that
domestic cats are descended from African Wildcats circa 8000 BCE, in the Middle East.
Since cats were cult animals in ancient Egypt, they were commonly believed to have been
domesticated there, but there may have been instances of domestication as early as the Neolithic.
According to research, cats are the most popular household pet in the world, and are now found
in almost every place where people live.
Cats have strong, flexible bodies, quick reflexes, sharp retractable claws and teeth that are
adapted to killing small prey. They are predatory in nature. Cats can hear sounds too faint or too
high in frequency for human ears, such as those made by mice. They can see in near darkness
and have an acute sense of smell. Like most other mammals, cats can't see colours the way
humans can.
Despite being solitary hunters, cats are a social species, and cat communication includes
mewing, purring, trilling, hissing, growling and grunting as well as other types of cat-specific
body language.
Just like dog shows, there are cat shows for pedigree cats. Breeding here is done in a controlled
manner, where only the best males and females are bred for a limited number of times. However,
failure
to control the breeding of pet cats by spaying and neutering can cause serious problems as cats
breed very rapidly. Furthermore, the abandonment of former household pets, has resulted in large
numbers of feral cats worldwide, requiring population control.
