In ancient times cats were worshipped as God ; they haven't forgotten this

The title of this charming little animation might be a bit of an overstatement, but its point, that cats are awesome, is always worth making. You've got to love any cat video that opens with the Terry Pratchett quote: "In ancient times, cats were worshipped as gods; they have not forgotten this."

It's been shown that the common house cat is basically a little lion - compared to dogs, who evolved from wolves, cats really haven't changed much from their wild counterparts.

So how did we end up living with these essentially wild, yet cuddly, creatures?

It started thousands of years ago in a little - but literal - game of cat and mouse:

Early farmers in Asia and the Middle East started getting really good at agriculture around 12,000 years ago. They started storing their crops, like grains - and this meant they started having a rodent problem.

The Near Eastern wildcat - which still roams the deserts in the Middle East - saw an opportunity. While some of these wildcats may have been captured to be rodent hunters on the farms, it's thought that the cats probably chose to get closer to farmers so they could hunt the rodents eating the grain.

Scientists speculate that farmers saw the benefits of having these wildcats around, so they probably started providing food and shelter to the cats to get them to stick around.

For the next several thousand years, cats started being friendly to humans, who were friendly back. As it's well known, Egyptians even worshipped their feline friends. And a grave from 9,500 BC on the island of Cyprus was recently unearthed: it contained the remains of a person who had been buried with the remains of their cat. This means that when a family moved to the island, they must have brought their pet cat with them.

Cats were largely outdoor pets until the invention of clay kitty litter in the mid-20th century allowed cats to stay inside if nature called. Refrigeration also helped cat lovers keep food for their feline friends, since cats need to eat meat, and most people couldn't - or wouldn't - go out hunting animals for their cats.

And that's how we got where we are today.
