What is Cleopatra's cat?
Cleopatra's cat stems come from Cleopatra. In ancient Egypt, the cat was a very sacred and noble animal, regarded as the embodiment and symbol of the nemesis of the moon goddess, and later regarded as the embodiment of the justice of the sun god. A cat temple was established in Kubastan Street, and more than 700,000 devout believers came here to worship the cat every Memorial Day.

Historical background:

Egyptian cats are very clever and loyal to their owners. Perhaps the most unique thing about the Egyptian cat is that it has a "scarab" symbol on its forehead and brow. Coupled with its slender posture, a noble temperament arises spontaneously.

According to the available data, Egypt was the earliest place to domesticate cats, so Egyptian cats are one of the oldest cat species? However, Egyptian cats were once on the verge of extinction. Maybe it was really blessed by the gods and saved abruptly.
