omestication of animals was an amazing feat that changed human relationships with the natural world.
But while a Pomeranian looks nothing like a wolf, a thoroughbred jump horse looks nothing like a wild pony, and a potbellied pig looks nothing like a black boar, ‘domestic’ house cats look pretty much exactly like wild cats.
That’s because they domesticated themselves—not through form, but through function, and research reveals that wildcat ancestors share essentially the same genetics as house cats today.

Cats are inherently evil.
The only thing that stops them from world domination is the lack of opposable thumbs...
Dogs have owners; cats have staff
I should’ve known some jackals would throw me to the wolves!
God, sitting on his throne, asks the first dog what kind of life he led on earth. The dog replies he was faithful to his master, defended the family, and was a boon companion. God pronounces his life a good one, and states he may sit at God's side.
God then asks the second dog what kind of life he led. The dog replies he was a shepherd dog, served his master well, and faithfully guarded the herd day and night, through all kinds of weather. God states his life was good and he may sit at God's other side.
God then asked the cat what about his life. The cat looked at the first dog, then the second, then turned to God and said, "You're sitting in my chair".
lol
I was thinking the other day how cats come in all sizes from a male lion that weighs more than 400 pounds while a house cat is 10 pounds.
On the other hand humans do not have such a size disparity. A dwarf might be 3 feet tall while the tallest humans are about 7 feet tall.
Yeah but , Could somebody please tell the cougar that she already has a husband who lives there and I am just the delivery driver?!
Old line from Morris the Cat commercials: A cat who responds quickly to commands, loses control of his owner.
Wait until the evil establishment concludes that super tiny hands are better at manufacturing electronics.......
Snapshot taken just before dinner time. There was not much left to bury ...
that didn’t work out so well for seigfreid and roy
Ah yes.
Messi, who throws a fit when his human “dad” is off to the store.
There’s video of Nessi yelling at the door because hus human is out without kitty permission.
Can you imagine if that cat decided to sharpen his claws on your couch😮 what if you ran a laser beam across your wife butt 😂 laser up the wall🤗
Have you ever seen a Serval Cat?
I read an article about one that escaped captivity for a few hours.
If a Leopard, and a Siamese and a Jackrabbit had a Baby...
Think if they were bigger...my cat stalks me when I’m gardening. I look over and see a pair of crazy yellow eyes staring fixedly out from behind a large clump of grass, I move, and he slinks on to the next clump of grass. Occasionally he will jump out and grab my ankles.
And I know he’s thinking, “if only I weighed another 100 pounds, this person would have another thing coming...” But in the meantime, he accepts my offerings of food.
Cats, rats and cockroaches: the three great human codependent species. I guess one out of three ain’t bad.
That depends. If you ran a laser across Moochelle's butt, Messi would try to hide under the carpet.
Ok guys. The Government is paying for the job, so today we go herd cats. “Ralph, yeah you, what’s the question? Yep you can’t herd cats. I know that. I said this is a government project. Results don’t mean shitz.”
Love it!
