Mummy T-shirts: The History of Cats

Author: Martine Carlsen

5000 years ago (recent studies say about 100.000 years, but the account) of a chip – and hunger – in a Wildcat Instead of Africa (which was then) Upper Egypt made a clever observation. "These strange and mysterious bipeds seem very fond of grain, thought. "Biped takes large quantities of grain and stored in large baskets. Large baskets of grain to attract a large number of mice delicious! Bipedal mice appears not as in their grain! I think it will take one of these strange bipeds and live at home and eat your MICE for him! "

And therefore a mutually beneficial relationship between the chip and a strange Egyptian cat bipeds in Africa has begun! And he made history.

The Life was good in Egypt and African countries enjoy cats recently discovered their coexistence with humans, cats like the Egyptians, Pharaoh LOVED cats and had plenty of food around, but … So that, having lived a good life in Egypt, a thousand years, the cats – they are animals curious! – Began to ask: "What is outside the country. Are we missing something? "

A cat says: "I wish I could sit outside the temple with a raised paw, attractive people to enter this sacred place. It would be pure! My skills and talents completely match the job description. "The cat said a trader Mediterranean was in Egypt on a business trip, and the operator said: "I know a place. I'll take you there." The operator brought the cat in Japan, where the cat is an aspect of the pagoda five-storey temple with a beautiful garden.

The cat is placed himself outside the temple and raised her leg in a friendly house attracting passersby to enter the temple, now your job! The Japanese people had never seen anything like it, but they liked what they saw and said: "This little animal has an air of mystery around his sanctuary, this animal will bring us luck! Say that this animal Maneki Neko and we do a lot of little figurines porcelain Maneki Neko which are sold to tourists and make a lot of money! … more than 4000 years. "

A couple of elderly cats were so tired of eternal heat and drought in Africa and said another trader visit (in the city to buy tiny replicas of the pyramid of its novelty store in London), they would go to a cool and humid. The trader, of course, brought back to England. English is … Well, ENGLISH, said: "I say, What good little creatures. We are going to receive, feed and reproduce and CAT SHOWS gorgeous!" The everything was much more feline By year (1871 to be precise), but believe me, the idea was born the second of the first in English (or maybe … it is probably an English version), set up the eyes of cats.

But England is not the only European country where the whole leg of Egyptian cat. Around 2000 BC for cats in Egypt has been successfully launched marketing campaign around the world promotion of its unique mouse and rat hunting skills. And has borne fruit! Soon the cats have been invited to all countries in Europe, Middle East and Asia, where they lived well and in harmony with human bipeds many years. But then something happened:

ENTER the High Middle Age! … in the history of cats. Just after the end of the Middle Ages – began around 1550 and almost a century – the Christian Church decided that the cats have been the source of all evil. Cats have always been associated with the gods of Egypt is Bast, the goddess of life and the family and in the northern part of Europe is Freya, who was always surrounded by cats. But the gods are not Christians, if the cat is "Animal non grata. "This is probably where the saying" the Curiosity killed the cat "has entered the vocabulary of English, who wanted to see the world and see where I am! "Yes, curiosity did kill many cats during these terrible times. The cats have been persecuted, burned, drowned and hanged. And the people who had the audacity to look like a cat Bruges considered. And they were also killed. This was not the right time to be a "crazy cat woman" in Europe!

Meanwhile, the cat is responsible for the spread of plaque, in fact, when the rats of the disease that has managed to kill nearly half the human population, the spread of pests and other epidemics. And as human beings have been effectively killed most of their cats, there was hardly any left to kill the rats! That teach disrespect to deal with cats?

But eventually things have improved. The arrival of Europeans in time lost their senses and realized that cats are really good to have around you! Less than rats, the disease, and now ex-wife's cat and the harmonious relationship the man has made his return. And when the first European settlers arrived in America in 1600-something, they brought with them cats in the New World. Good ideas! Cats keep their homes, farms, houses, latrines and doghouse free of rats and mice. Well, perhaps not in doghouse!

Yes, human bipeds really rediscovered the value of cats. They have cats at home again and this time, their heart too. The cat becomes more a mousetrap very useful, it has become a pet.

Cats, etc – to cats – INTERIOR started to claim their territory, the sofa, best chair, table, bed, in the drawer … in brief: the entire house. And things should be between cat and man.

5000 years ago, Egyptians worshiped cats, and showed his admiration and respect for them after death mummifying representing vases, amulets, rings and in the tombs! Today we pay tribute to cats, drawing pictures of cats in cups, napkins, sofa cushions, carpets, clocks, fridge magnets and T-shirts! And in a thousand years from now, I'm sure there will be a great photo of a cat in the first spacecraft to Mars.
