Of Cats and Men: An Enduring Bond Between Two Species

Cats and humans have shared a close relationship for thousands of years. From ancient Egypt to the modern day, cats have been revered as companions, protectors, and even gods. In his book "Of Cats and Men," author Xanadu Cavendish explores the deep and enduring bond between these two species.

Cavendish begins his book by tracing the history of the cat-human relationship. He shows how cats were first domesticated in Egypt around 3000 BCE, and how they quickly spread throughout the world. Cats were prized for their ability to control rodents, and they were often kept in homes and temples. In ancient Greece, cats were associated with the goddess Artemis, and in Rome, they were considered sacred animals.

Over the centuries, cats have played a variety of roles in human society. They have been used as hunting companions, watchdogs, and even therapy animals.
