Cats: From Predators to Pets taking place in Dundee
Fans of all things feline can indulge their fascination in mankind's enigmatic and charming furry little friends this month in an exhibition in Scotland.
Cats: From Predators to Pets is taking place at the University of Dundee Museums' Tower Building and runs 9.30am-7pm, Monday to Friday, until September 26.
The exhibition combines artwork and biological specimens to examine the creature's evolutionary journey, whether in the wilds or in people's homes and hearts.
A Dundee City Council spokesperson said: "They started as wild hunters and have been worshipped in ancient temples, featured in nursery rhymes, displayed in circuses and now rule the internet.
"Through artworks and specimens, this exhibition explores the evolution of the feline - human relationship.
"From jungle prowlers to sofa dwellers, see how these mysterious creatures have adapted, served and charmed their way into our lives.
"Whether you’re a cat person or just have a cat-like curiosity, this exhibition reveals the wild side of one of our favourite animals."
