Everyone knows the Ancient Egyptians loved their cats. There are thousands of cat statues and mummified cats left from that time. Heck, there were so many mummified cats, that later Egyptian farmers would crush them and use them to fertilize their fields. Modern archeologists have challenged this belief in cat loving. It seems the Egyptians used cats in religious worship. You could sacrifice a cat to get a blessing from the gods. Temples bred lots of cats and then sold them to worshipers in need of a sacrificial offering.
