What attracted cats to humans?

Answer 1

my advice is food I guess

...... MY advice would be to get a dog whistle (there is a iPod / iphone app too)

first try a short little whisle not too long is this scares him or her stop because not all dog enjoy this sound (yeah try food too)

Answer 2

Mice. Humans invented agriculture, and then granaries to store their surplus food, which attracted mice and other small animals. The cats followed the mice.

The domestication of cats actually happened before recorded history, but considering the timing, it's a good theory.

Answer 3

well it can depend if you live on a farm like me then food or your cat going over to where the other cat is can attract them but if you live in the city and your cat is loose then they could be following your cat all the way home to get food or if you have garbage out and not in a can.
