The silks created by weavers in Baghdad were inspired by the beautiful and varied colors and markings of cat coats. These fabrics were called \tabby\" by European traders."""
When a family cat died in ancient Egypt, family members would mourn by shaving off their eyebrows. They also held elaborate funerals during which they drank wine and beat their breasts. The cat was embalmed with a sculpted wooden mask and the tiny mummy was placed in the family tomb or in a pet cemetery with tiny mummies of mice.

If they have ample water, cats can tolerate temperatures up to 133 °F.
That would be about 56C. That’s really warm. Summer temperatures in the Middle East & desert regions.
A cat's normal pulse is 140-240 beats per minute, with an average of 195.
That is really fast compared to the human pulse rate that ranges between 59-99 beats per minute. Source
