The ancient Egyptians stored large amounts of grain. Rodents ate up their grain. It was a very serious problem. Then cats came out of the desert to eat up the rodents. The Egytian's grain supply was saved. They thought the Gods sent cats to save them. The Egyptians worshipped cats ever since.

@badminton On of their cat goddesses is truly horrifying. It took her father dyeing and druging the nile and other water sources to stop her slaughtering Eygpt and the rest of the world.
