But cat domesticated us

Farming -> grain -> rodents -> cats
- I like OP's version better, so that's what is fact now.
  
  You can like it, but the hard truth is that cats were never domesticated. They can leave anytime they want and would be fine. Humans would never be the same, though…
  
  Me too. dO YuOr oWn rEsEaRch
- That's what big cat wants you to think.
  In reality, cats already ate the rodents, but now you have to pay them for doing it.
- Hell. Even today cats are great for pest control, my cats go nuts if there's a fly in the house until they get it
  Granted, a cat leaping across the room constantly to try and get it is way more annoying than the fly itself, but still lol
- Fake news.
  
  Fake meows
- Nuh uh, Cat domesticated us
I find it funny that besides intellect, us humans possess the greatest power, which is petting. Petting allows us to be friends with most animals that would otherwise kill us
- Idk, i feel like control over food supply might be a bigger factor on these friendships :p
  
  Food is a good reason. But I'm friends with several cats I don't feed. Petting works!
- Pretty sure my cat would still kill me if he had the ability. He'll be like "Give me pets. Scratch my belly. Now DIE!"
  
  AFAIR it's because the cat showing you their belly is not "scratch my belly" but rather "I'm not afraid of you so I show you my most fragile of bits"
- I don't know about that... Try petting a bear.
This could have gone a much different direction if they hadn't of petted it in exactly the right spot.
- "It shredded my whole arm!"
  "And I love him, who's a good kitty?"
