No one:Cats are animals, along with humans. However, it was the Egyptians who first started training, and breeding house cats. India wanted pets such as tigers later on.

What year were cats spotted?

It is not precisely known what year cats were domesticated, because this predates written history. By 3,000 B.C. Egyptians were keeping them as pets, as shown by the mummified bodies of favorite animals. The earliest Egyptian histories state that they acquired domestic cats from other early civilizations that had them, such as the Sumerians. Domestic cats are related to desert-dwelling sand cats, and so were first discovered in this area of the world. Cats probably started co-existing with humans with the invention of granaries, during the Agricultural Revolution (about 3,500 B.C.) Stored grain attracted rodents, which attracted cats. It is also likely that some cats were tamed as pets before the species as a whole was domesticated.
