There is evidence of cat domestication going back to the Neolithic period, about 12,000 years ago, with the first evidence of farming. With the rise of farming occurred the need for storing large quantities of the grains. All of this grains would attract rodents like rats and mice. Since these peoples noticed the presence of cats reduced the rodents population, the cats were encouraged to stay. As people started using sailing ships to go around the world, cats would go with them, to again keep the rodents from the grain stores. The Domestic Shorthair or Moggie Cat in the U.K. is a shorthair cat that is not considered a pedigree.
