==Summary==
Cats, unlike dogs, may have developed as a domesticated animal through their own volition where they adapted to living close to humans. Perhaps not surprisingly, we generally have seen positive association of cats, given their utility in keeping pests out of houses and farming goods. At times, however, the association of cats with witches may have led to their non-acceptance; however, this has proven to be an exception. Mostly, and throughout many Old World countries, cats have been depicted positively. While they have been pets since likely the Neolithic period more than 9,0000 years ago, it was only since the Renaissance that people began to actively create new domestic breeds, many of which we are familiar with.
