What can be more interesting to write about than cat history, when you're sitting with [Lilo] in your lap?

Science has an article about the history of the cats, updated after DNA-analysis:
"Modern cats appear to have originated in Asia 10 million years ago and undertook a series of 10 intercontinental migrations that correlate with major fluctuations in sea level."

New York Time's story about it:

2004-04-08, Science had another article about the domistication of the cat, because then a 9500 year old cat skeleton was found in a grave:
