The cat (Felis catus) is a small mammal from Earth. The cat was domesticated by Humans thousands of years ago and have since been kept as pets.
During the days of sail on Earth ships often carried a ship's cat, which was tasked with catching and killing any vermin that might have gotten aboard the vessel.
Alien visitation during Earth's distant past may have inspired the ancient Egyptians' worship of cats. The Caitians, Kzinti, Tzenkethi or Felisians might have been responsible, or a combination thereof. (Star Trek: Liberty)
