I want to deeper understand, and to read between the lines to understand this, also was there a certain feline they preferred?

Like their lack of understanding of the brain, they simply didn't understand just how bad cats suck arse.


An alternate theory- they didn't have antifreeze to get rid of their cat problem so they assumed cats were gods

Whereas early Man went out and domesticated wolves to create dogs as we know them today, cats chose to join humans and domesticated themselves.

Their intelligence and grace endeared them to early humans and this made them desirable pets.

Because Egyptians are a bunch of pussies that use slaves of other races to do their over overextravagant and convoluted dirty work.


Which is pretty much why one man almost singlehandedly brought down that entire empire.

An ancient Egyptian never met a pussy he didn't like.

frick you dude.


But anyway. The agriculturally inclined Egyptian society likely revered cats because of their skill at pest control. It's very easy to love our feline friends when every rat they kill means another mouthful of grain for your family.

The men of the world are controlled by the pussy. Not a lot has changed.

Who among us of the male persuasion do not worship pussy?

Some like a nice fat one
Some like a skinny one
Some like a shorthair
Some like a longhair
Some like an asian one
Some like a french one
Some like a black one
Some like a white one


If you read between the lines a well licked pussy purrs and purrs and purrs...

I've always thought that it was because of a cat's hunting abilities. I am not a cat fan, but damn, they are stealthy critters.

Raptors are great too,although they do have a considerable advantage.Ancient cultures worshiped both.
