Cats: From Vermin Hunters to Royalty in 10,000 Years

A two-panel meme showing the evolution of cats' relationship with humans. The top panel features a tabby cat standing outdoors with text stating it will help humans with their vermin problem. The bottom panel shows a different cat (calico) lying on a purple pillow with a small crown, with text indicating this is '10,000 years later' and the cat saying 'Marvelous.' The humor comes from the anthropomorphization of cats and the reversal of roles over time, from working animals to pampered pets.
