Interesting! "Fluffy" may have long lost Dilmun relatives in Bahrain...
New scientific findings are leading international researchers to believe that the early domestication of cats may have begun in the Middle East and more specifically Bahrain.
Following the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sampling of Dilmun cats from Bahrain, UK and US scientists concluded that a good proportion had ancient DNA profiles.
New DNA techniques also showed that the domestication process started more than 131,000 years ago rather than 9,000 years ago (evidence from ancient burial sites in Cyprus).
