This article is about the cat species that is commonly kept as a pet. For the cat family, seeFelidae. For other uses, seeCat (disambiguation)andCats (disambiguation).

Thedomestic cat[1][2](Felis catusorFelis silvestris catus)[2][4]is a small, typicallyfurry,domesticated, andcarnivorousmammal. They are often calledhouse catswhen kept as indoor pets or simplycatswhen there is no need to distinguish them from otherfelidsandfelines.[6]Cats are often valued by humans for companionship and their ability to huntvermin.
Cats are similar inanatomyto the other felids, with strong, flexible bodies, quick reflexes, sharp retractable claws, and teeth adapted to killing small prey.Cat sensesfit acrepuscularand predatoryecological niche. Cats can hear sounds too faint or too high infrequencyfor human ears, such as those made by mice and other small animals. They can see in near darkness. Like most other mammals, cats have poorercolor visionand a bettersense of smellthan humans.
Despite being solitary hunters, cats are asocial speciesandcat communicationincludes the use of a variety ofvocalizations(mewing,purring,trilling, hissing,growling, andgrunting), as well ascat pheromonesand types ofcat-specific body language.[7]
Cats have a high breeding rate. Under controlled breeding, they can be bred and shown asregisteredpedigree pets, a hobby known ascat fancy. Failure to control the breeding of pet cats byneuteringand theabandonment of former household petshas resulted in large numbers offeral catsworldwide, requiringpopulation control.[8]This has contributed, along with habitat destruction and other factors, to extinction of many bird species. Cats have been known to extirpate a bird species within a specific region and may have contributed to extinction of isolated island populations.[9]Cats are thought to be primarily, though not solely, responsible for the extinction of 33 species of birds, and the presence of feral and free ranging cats makes some locations unsuitable for attempted species reestablishment in otherwise suitable locations.[10]
Since cats werevenerated in ancient Egypt, they were commonly believed to have been domesticated there,[11]but there may have been instances of domestication as early as theNeolithicfrom around 9,500 years ago (7,500 BC).[12]A genetic study in 2007 concluded that domestic cats are descended fromAfrican wildcats(Felis silvestris lybica), having diverged around 8,000 BC inWest Asia.[11][13]Cats are the most popular pet in the world, and are now found in almost every place where humans live.[14]
There are more than 70 cat breeds around the world. Different associations proclaim different numbers according to their standards. The International Progressive Cat Breeders Alliance (IPCBA) recognizes 73 cat breeds while TICA (The International Cat Association) recognizes 58, CFA (The Cat Fanciers' Association) recognizes 44 and Federation International Feline (FIFE) recognizes 43 cat breeds.[15]

Main articles:Cultural depictions of catsandCats in ancient Egypt
A 19th century drawing of a tabby cat
Traditionally, historians tended to thinkancient Egyptwas the site of cat domestication, owing to the clear depictions of house cats in Egyptian paintings about 3,600 years old.[4]However, in 2004, a Neolithic grave excavated inShillourokambos, Cyprus, contained the skeletons, laid close to one another, of both a human and a cat. The grave is estimated to be 9,500 years old, pushing back the earliest known felinehuman association significantly.[13][16][17]The cat specimen is large and closely resembles the African wildcat (F. s. lybica), rather than present-day domestic cats. This discovery, combined with genetic studies, suggests cats were probably domesticated in the Middle East, in theFertile Crescentaround the time of thedevelopment of agricultureand then they were brought to Cyprus and Egypt.[18]
Direct evidence for the domestication of cats 5,300 years ago in Quanhucun in China has been published. The cats are believed to have been attracted to the village by rodents, which in turn were attracted by grain cultivated and stored by humans.[19]
In ancient Egypt, cats weresacred animals, with the goddessBastetoften depicted in cat form, sometimes taking on the war-like aspect of a lioness.[20]:220TheRomansare often credited with introducing the domestic cat from Egypt to Europe;[20]:223inRoman Aquitaine, a first- or second-centuryengravingof a young girl holding a cat is one of two earliest depictions of the Roman domesticated cat.[21]However, cats possibly were already kept in Europe prior to theRoman Empire, as they may have been present in Britain in the lateIron Age.[22]Domestic cats were spread throughout much of the rest of the world during theAge of Discovery, as they were carried onsailing shipsto control shipboard rodents and as good-luck charms.[20]:223
Several ancient religions believed cats are exalted souls, companions or guides for humans, that are all-knowing but mute so they cannot influence decisions made by humans. In Japan, themaneki nekocat is a symbol of good fortune.
Although no species are sacred in Islam,cats are revered by Muslims. Some Western writers have statedMuhammadhad a favorite cat,Muezza.[23]He is reported to have loved cats so much, "he would do without his cloak rather than disturb one that was sleeping on it".[24]The story has no origin in early Muslim writers, and seems to confuse a story of a laterSufisaint,Ahmed ar-Rifa'icenturies after Muhammad.[25]
