Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history of the domestic cat and ferret, exploring their relationship with humans from ancient times to the present day. The author challenges long-held beliefs, presenting evidence that cats were not domesticated in classical times but instead were kept as mousers alongside domesticated ferrets. Extensive research into the anatomy and habits of various musteline and viverrine species further supports this theory. By examining the linguistic and archaeological record, the book sheds light on the complex interplay between humans and these fascinating animals throughout history, offering new insights into our enduring bond with them.
