White cat with two different colored eyes Those furry, domesticated, carnivorous mammals known as Felis silvestris catus (hey that's where Sylvestor the cat got his name) was seen as a sacred animal in ancient cultures such as Egpyt and the Middle East. The history of domestic cats dates back to as early as 9000 years. A genetic study in 2007 revealed that all house cats are descended from as few as five female African Wildcats.

Being one of the most popular pets in the world, they are valued by humans for companionship and ability to hunt vermin and household pests. Felines are one of the smartest animals on the planet and can interpret a human's mood and feelings. A cat’s brain is actually more biologically similar to a human brain than it is to a dog’s. Cats make about 100 different sounds while dogs make only about 10. On average, cats spend 2/3 of every day sleeping. That means a nine-year-old cat has been awake for only three years of its life.

It's also true that when falling from heights cats usually do land on their feet, although unfortunately, they don't have nine lives. The average cat's life is between 12-15 years, which is around 70-80 in human years, and indoor cats can actually live up until the ripe old age of 20 and sometimes beyond.

The regal Lion, known as theKing of the Jungle is not actually directly related to domestic cats. Both fall under the family Felidae, but domestic cats are in the subfamily Felinae, whereas big cats (Lions, Tigers, Leopards and Jaguars) fall under the subfamily Pantherinae. happy smiley face
