Cat

One of humanity's most successful domesticated companions, domestic cats are small, agile carnivores originating from the Near Eastern wildcat (Felis silvestris lybica) domesticated approximately 10,000 years ago. With over 70 recognized breeds, cats retain strong predatory instincts and have colonized virtually every terrestrial environment on Earth. They are the world's most popular pet, with an estimated 600 million kept worldwide.

Chroococcus rufescens is a colonial cyanobacterium in the family Chroococcaceae, named for its reddish or rufous pigmentation. Cells are enclosed in layered gelatinous sheaths and form small aggregates on rock, soil, and bark surfaces. Its conservation status is not evaluated.
