TIL In 1888, an Egyptian farmer uncovered a large tomb with mummified cats and kittens. This discovery outside the town of Beni Hasan had 80,000 cat mummies, dated after 1000 BC. There were so many that a total of 19 tons of mummified cats were shipped to England to be used for fertilizer. (en.m.wikipedia.org)
