It’s true, cats were considered sacred animals in ancient Egypt. And from what I could see from our visits to Egypt they are still cared for and revered. Our guesthouse in Cairo had plenty of cats hanging out on its rooftop terrace that we enjoyed cuddling with. Cats were thought to bring good luck and they were so revered that when a cat died, the pharaohs had them mummified. As a cat lover, I can relate.
