Cats
Theoretically, the Egyptians could have mummified any animal they wanted. But, they only mummified animals that they thought human decedents would want as company in the afterworld. So, the smallest animal they usually bothered to mummify was a pet cat.

Cats!
Cats is the answer.
A mummified cat is a cat that has been preserved by intentional or accidental desiccation (drying out), which leads to the preservation of its body. In ancient Egypt, mummified cats were often buried with their owners as part of a religious practice. Today, mummified cats can be found in museums or archaeological sites, providing insight into ancient cultures and burial practices.
There were heaps of animals that were mummified. They were all mummified for one reason. The Ancient Egyptians believed that animals were the messengers of certain gods. Some mummified animals included~ * Cats- Messengers of the Goddess Bastet * Crocodiles- Messengers of the God Sobek * Ibis'- Messengers of the God Thoth * Baboons- Messengers of the God Thoth, etc There were hundreds of other animals mummified also such as snakes and frogs. Though as there were so many Gods/Goddesses, we cannot be entirely sure which God an animal was associated with.
We have found a mummified body in the desert.Because he was mummified, he was also rather well preserved.
The people that were mummified had their pets mummified, also.
