Published in Daily Trivia

It is traditionally known that cats were first domesticated back in ancient Egypt time due to cats being found in Egyptian paintings dating back as far as 3,500 years old. It was not until 2004 when a Neolithic grave was excavated in Cyprus that they found a skeleton of a cat lying closely next to human remains. Scientists estimated the both the human and feline remains to be around 9,500 years old.
