Ancient Artifacts Show That It’s A Cat’s World And We’re All Just Living In It.

If you live with cats (because one does not simply own a cat), then this won’t come as a surprise to you. Archaeologists have found paw prints in a Roman roof tile that’s about 2,000 years old, proving that cats have never really cared about what gets in their way. In ancient Rome, roof tiles were made of wet clay, left to dry in the sun. Researchers believe that’s when one curious kitty stomped across the tile, leaving its imprint on history.
