CATS


simsim Egypt picture No. 513636

There are people that do not support and others who can not live without them. The cat is a wonderful animal, mysterious, independent, aristocratic, proud ... and also sweet and affectionate when he wants. Each has its own personality, but almost all are highly territorial and can never be certain of their reactions. Perhaps we are so magical because they are so unpredictable and seductive.

Cat domestication began 5000 years ago to Nubia come to Egypt, and probably because of its proven ability to protect the grain from the voracity of the rodents, domesticated and was accepted into the homes. for their ability to see in the dark and the huge enlargement of its pupils, it is directly linked with the sun and moon, with the rhythm of the tides and cycles of soil fertility, so it took almost a divine status . Won the favor of the Egyptian family and the hearts of their masters. Was protected by law and he came around a cult that is customized to the cat goddess Bastet, daughter of ISIS (goddess of the sun, moon and earth) and Osiris (god of the sun and the underworld). The attributes of Bastet, in addition to the legacy of their parents, were sexuality and fertility.

"People that hate cats, will come back as mice in their next life." - Faith Resnick

I am not very fond of cats (I prefer their cousins lions). Although I understand the fascination cats produce on Humankind.
But thank you for your lesson of History and Mythology and for your collection of cats.
