Cats were perfectly positioned to coexist with humans - they eat the pests that feed on our grain, aren’t large enough to be much of a threat, aren’t a good food source, and are soft and nice to pet. Explains why they self-domesticated more than once in different parts of the world!

Domesticated is a bit of a stretch, especially when we often hope they still hunt rodents. 😜
They tolerate us, and maybe often love us, but would not hesitate to survive without us.
Cats are independent people that choose to continue to live with you because it’s nice. Most of them can find a way out if they want it.
