Whether you're a cat or kitten owner or keep a working cat we're hoping to read all about your 'pet. Maybe you'd like to post a picture or even start a web log or video log so that others can catch up on the ne.
Anyone can join in. All you'll need is an e-mail address, a moggie tale and perhaps a picture of your pet. Whether your cat is a 'best in show' rosette winner, top 'mouser' round the shop, or your closest companion, you can start your moggy blog right here.
All our 'moggies' are very special cats of course, so why not add your cat to the bunch?
An Introduction
Most authorities on the subject agree that today's domestic cat is descended from the African wild cat (Felis silvestris libyca). Bones of this animal have been found in the caves lived in by ancient man. It is not known whether this cat was hunted and killed for food or whether it's kittens were raised and tamed and used for pest control. What we do know is that by 2500 BC in Egypt, when agriculture was well established, silos full of gain attracted rats and mice and tabbie cats (attracted out of the woods by these rodents). Paintings and Inscriptions from about this time show cats as domestic animals and the companions of us humans. The Egyptian named the cat 'Mau' because of the way it meows. Why we call em Moggy or Moggies is anybody's guess.
