Cats have been popular pets for thousands of years. The ancient Egyptians are thought to have been the first to keep cats in their homes. Today, people like cats for many reasons. Cats are easy to care for. They are soft and beautiful and they can catch mice!
    A cat is a natural hunter. It has a good sense of hearing. Its sense of smell is well developed, too. Its eyes can detect the smallest movements. With its powerful legs it can run after its prey and jump to catch it.
    A pet cat that is fed every day does net need to hunt for food. But it may go after a mouse anyway. This is because hunting is an instinct in cats. They are born with this ability.
