Yea, it's an interesting, almost cartoon-like drawing. Like dogs as protectors of the home and hunting assistants, cats made good pets because they kept the rats and mice away from destroying and bringing disease to food stores, as well as eliminating rodents from the home. Like dogs, they can be house broken. Most are not very good at being trained, but they are cute, affectionate, and can be easily domesticated when raised from a kitten.

 

The first evidence of their domestication was in Mesopotamia about 12,000 BC,  and about 4,000 BC in Egypt where they were well loved and sometimes revered.

 

Now we know that some ancient American cultures also liked cats.
