Cats of Cairo-Egypt's Enduring Legacy
Goddess or Cat? Is your feline friend not telling you something? Does your cat REALLY have royal ancestry? Find out in the soon to be released photographic gift book,
Cats of Cairo-Egypt's Enduring Legacy.
Cairo cats are street-smart survivors whose direct ancestors in ancient Egypt were revered as gods. But a family reunion between them and your cozy fireside feline could
result in a cross-cultural misunderstanding. These direct descendants of CleoPAWtra have a CATstory and heritage that places them (in their minds anyway) into the realm of Pharonic gods and goddesses. Is this an
attitude you recognize? Was your feline friend once a goddess?
Your cats cousins were so beloved in ancient days that they were portrayed in statues and, upon the death of a cat, a lavish funeral was held. Since
then, the tradition of adoring cats has continued. According to folk tradition, the prophet Muhammad cut off his coat sleeve because he had to stand up for prayer and didn't want to disturb his cat who was napping on
his sleeve. Today, the mystique of the cat lives on.
The Cats of Cairo are elusive creatures. During her seven-year stay in Cairo, Lorraine Chittock searched the nooks and crannies where feline denizens of the
city hide. "They don't hang out," says Chittock, "they slink." To obtain intimate portraits of these wary animals, Ms. Chittock had to become "a wildlife tracker in an urban environment."
Elusive and remote, Cats of Cairo are watching and waiting for their time of rule to return. Is your cat doing the same? If you want to see four of these cat goddesses yourself, click on http://www.cats.camels.com
