The egyptian dont have shit on us considering cat worship.
They on every continent, across every culture, movies are made about them, legendary characters and cartoons are them, the internet is 49% cats, 49% porn, and probably 2% cat porn.
we have cafes dedicated to them.
We just secular about it.
if the far future were to look into the past, like an archeologist etc, they would look at egypt, and they would look at us,
and the clear answer to who was most cat obsessed would be us.
we have even devised entire communication systems in memes to express every emotion with the faces of random kittens.
