Animal Husbandry
Animals and Pets
The cat's status as a pet has now become unshakable around the world. However, it has had a very long and arduous road to win its popularity. In ancient Egyptians, it was loved by the public with the goddess Bastet, who holds the head of a cat, but after coming to Europeans, it was treasured as a rat trap, but it was also suspected of being a demon messenger due to its noncompliance attitude toward humans, and it was treated badly. Sometimes as a rat trap or a demon messenger, as an existence with mysterious powers like those depicted by Edgar Allan Poe and Luis Carroll, sometimes as an ideal mother, and sometimes as a woman who does not accept the rule of men. It was depicted in various literature and paintings, sometimes praised and sometimes condemned. It was not so long ago that the arrogant attitude of not listening to humans and the ferocious nature of the wild were also accepted as an attraction as it is now. This book covers 4000 years of history of cats and humans by time and place. It is a must-have "textbook" for those who love cats!
