		In a book like this it turns out to be necessary to minimize the description of the ideal characteristics that the members of the individual breeds must have due that they vary very much from one country to another.

	Croydon Cats Protection (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Domestic cats (Felis catus) are thought to descend from the African wild cat (Felis sylvestris lybica) which was kept as long as 4000 years ago by the Ancient Egyptians to protect their grain stores against rodents.
		This wild cat is closely related to the European wild cat (Felis sylvestris) which in Britain is now only found in remote parts of Scotland.
		Since it is very recently in evolutionary terms that cats have been domesticated, we can understand why they show so many characteristics of their wild cousins, and also how feral cats can exist - albeit suffering more from malnutrition and illness than their truly wild relatives.
