You have all heard the saying " It's raining cats and dogs" right? Well I have. And the other day, thanks to my (cheetah jogging next to a car on the freeway) boyfriend I got thinking where cats and dogs came from. We all know that God made all animals, well something they evolved from something, like in Pokemon. But we all know that animals came from somewhere or were made by someone.
Me and Jered were talking last night about cheetahs, and how people in India used to domesticate them. You know keep them as house pets. Well when I got home I started thinking, when did we start domesticating dogs and cats? And did they always look so cute a cuddly? Or did people take in Lions and Wolves and over time, those got lazy and small and fat and fluffy? I honestly believe that this is a good question. I know that not every country domesticates cats and dogs, some eat them. So does that mean that they do live in the wild and you can go catch on it the woods and bring it home? How were they tamed and breeded?
You know you can catch bunnies in the wild, they still roam there all sweet and innocent, but I have never head of a cat from the wild, unless it was a lion, or a dog from the wild unless its a wolf. So if they really did come from those animals shouldn't our saying not be " it's raining cats and dogs" but instead " its raining lions and wolves?" I think so. Tell me of your opinions please.:D
Love you all,

Hmmm, interesting, love.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about cats, but I do know during biblical times dogs were wild and not domesticated. They were considered foul creatures. But cats? Hmmm. I dunno.
Still, interesting thoughts, Vik.
Love you.
Since lions and wolves are more ferocious and wild, than most cats and dogs, raining lions and wolves, could mean really "ferocious" rain.
