                பூனை பாலூட்டி இனத்தைச் சேர்ந்த ஓர் அனைத்துண்ணி ஆகும். பூனைகள் மனிதனால் பழக்கப்பட்டு வீடுகளில் வளர்க்கப்படுகின்றன. வீடுகளில் வளர்க்கப்படும் பூனைகள் சைவ உணவையும் உண்கின்றன. பூனைகள் பண்டைய எகிப்தில் வழிபாட்டு விலங்குகளாக இருந்து வந்ததால், அவைகளை பொதுவாக வீட்டில் வளர்த்து வணங்கினர். பூனைகள் இறந்தால் அதற்கும் பிரமிடுகள் கட்டி, சில எலிகளையும் பாடம் செய்து எகிப்தியர்கள் புதைத்துள்ளனர். அரசர்களுடன் அவர்களது பூனைகளுக்கும் பிரமிடுகளில் இடங்கள் ஒதுக்கப்பட்டன.

                The cat, commonly referred to as the domestic cat or house cat, is a small domesticated carnivorous mammal. It is the only domesticated species of the family Felidae. Recent advances in archaeology and genetics have shown that the domestication of the cat occurred in the Near East around 7500 BC. It is commonly kept as a house pet and farm cat, but also ranges freely as a feral cat avoiding human contact. It is valued by humans for companionship and its ability to kill vermin. Its retractable claws are adapted to killing small prey like mice and rats. It has a strong, flexible body, quick reflexes, and sharp teeth, and its night vision and sense of smell are well developed. It is a social species, but a solitary hunter and a crepuscular predator. Cat communication includes vocalizations like meowing, purring, trilling, hissing, growling, and grunting as well as cat body language. It can hear sounds too faint or too high in frequency for human ears, such as those made by small mammals. It secretes and perceives pheromones.
