What exactly is a cat?
When did they start coexisting with humans?
Unlike livestock such as cattle, pigs, horses, and dogs, cats are loved by humans with their friendly expressions and gestures, and eventually gained a status similar to that of family.
Tracing the evolution and diversity of felids from the oldest feliforms, through the Ice Age Smilodon, to new species of savanna, exploring the relationship between cats and humans.
Some cats helped humans with hunting, while others were tasked with chasing away mice in grain warehouses.
Additionally, some cats were revered as beautiful and sacred in temples, receiving love from people.
While tracing the evolutionary history of cats, the book also scientifically explores their unique abilities as animals.
These include rapid growth, high reproductive capacity with over 100 offspring in a lifetime, special eyes that see in darkness, excellent sense of smell, the ability to hear ultrasonic sounds better than dogs, and the Jacobson’s organ, a sensory organ unique to cats, examining their mysterious abilities.
Why can cats always land on their feet? Why do they love grooming? What is the purpose of a cat’s whiskers?
From familiar topics, it also introduces interesting research findings on cats’ social skills and language abilities.
