If we had to pick the most mysterious creature in human civilization, cats would undoubtedly be at the top of the list. With their deep, knowing eyes and an attitude that suggests they’ve seen the secrets of the universe, cats seem to exist on an entirely different plane. Across history and cultures, they’ve been worshipped as divine beings, accused of witchcraft, and even today, they continue to act like they own the place—because, let’s be honest, they probably do. Let’s dive into some of the strangest and most fascinating cat facts you might not know.
Why Did Ancient Egyptians Worship Cats?
In ancient Egypt, cats weren’t just pets—they were practically VIPs of the animal kingdom. Around 2000 BCE, Egyptians started keeping cats to protect their grain stores from rodents. But it wasn’t long before they noticed something unusual: these creatures weren’t just excellent hunters, they had an almost mystical presence.
Enter Bastet, the cat-headed goddess of home, health, and fertility. She was worshipped across Egypt, and harming a cat was a crime punishable by death. Archaeologists have uncovered countless cat mummies, some buried with their owners, others entombed in elaborate feline cemeteries. In short, if you were a cat in ancient Egypt, life was pretty sweet—except for the whole getting mummified part.
Do Cats Really Have Nine Lives?
The idea that cats have nine lives has been around for centuries. While they can’t literally reincarnate, their survival skills are next-level. Their flexible spines and powerful reflexes allow them to twist mid-air and land on their feet—something scientists call the “righting reflex”.
Here’s a bizarre twist: studies show that cats falling from higher floors (six stories and above) actually survive more often than those falling from lower heights. Why? Once a cat realizes it’s in freefall, it spreads out like a parachute, slowing its descent. So, while they don’t have nine lives, they do have one very well-designed body.
Can Cats Understand Humans?
Every cat owner has wondered: Does my cat actually understand me, or is it just ignoring me on purpose? The answer is… both. Studies show that cats can recognize their names and differentiate between their owner’s voice and a stranger’s. However, unlike dogs—who rush to their humans when called—cats prefer to pretend they didn’t hear you.
In one experiment, researchers played recordings of both familiar and unfamiliar voices calling a cat’s name. The cats clearly reacted to their owners’ voices—but in true feline fashion, most of them refused to move. This selective hearing is just another reminder that in a cat’s world, obedience is optional.
Why Were Black Cats Once Considered Bad Luck?
Throughout history, black cats have been wrapped in superstition. In ancient Egypt, they were symbols of protection and good fortune. But by medieval Europe, the narrative had taken a dark turn—black cats became associated with witches and evil spirits. During the witch hunts of the 14th to 18th centuries, owning a black cat could even get you accused of sorcery.
Fortunately, not all cultures shared this fear. In Japan, black cats are seen as lucky charms, and many shopkeepers place black Maneki Neko (beckoning cat statues) at their entrances for good fortune. In parts of the UK, a black cat crossing your path is actually a sign of good luck. So, depending on where you are, a black cat might either curse you… or win you the lottery.
Are Cats Actually Aliens?
The internet loves calling cats “aliens,” and honestly, they’re not wrong. Consider the evidence:
- Cats can squeeze into impossibly small spaces like they’re made of liquid.
- They hear ultrasonic sounds but never tell us what they’re listening to.
- Their pupils dilate at night, making them look like extraterrestrial scanners.
- They don’t “live with” humans—humans simply exist to provide food.
Adding to the mystery, a 2015 DNA study traced modern house cats back to Middle Eastern wildcats from 9,000 years ago. Here’s the weird part: unlike dogs, which have changed dramatically due to domestication, cats have remained genetically almost identical to their wild ancestors. It’s as if they agreed to coexist with humans—but only on their terms.
From ancient temples to modern apartments, cats have remained a constant enigma, adored, feared, and utterly unbothered by human expectations. Perhaps one day, when humanity finally makes first contact with extraterrestrial life, we’ll arrive only to find our feline overlords waiting for us—already in charge.
