Modern domestic cats are descendants of the African wild cat, a species which hominines have always co-existed with. Cute, Max. Is hominines a real word?

Since cats were known for thousands of years in Egypt and elsewhere, it seems improbable that a single cat would have a high value in Morocco or Tunisia or wherever it was sold. A pretty story, but perhaps not based on fact.
