I maded an infographic about da oldest named cat outta da official tomb sketches from plate IX in The Tomb of Puyemre at Thebes, vol 1, (1922) by Norman de Garis Davies. Da cat's name is not in a cartouche, despite rumors. Cats do not need one. --Loki💛😸 #cats #CatsofBlueSky #AncientEgypt

An infographic with a typical Egyptology black-line sketch of the wall of a tomb in the background. Red arrows point to the cat and his name. A photograph from the 1920s of a caracal cat is in the lower left and a matching photo of an Egyptian man holding his pet caracal is in the upper right. A sketch shows where the missing parts of the cat and name would look. There is a text box that explains:
This is currently the
oldest name of a cat
known. He appears in a
damaged carving in the
Tomb of Puimre, which is
around 3500 years old.
During this time, housecats
were long-eared desert
Caracal cats like the ones in
these century-old pictures
from Egypt.

His name is above him,
Nedjem or Nojem, which
means "Carob Pod". It's often
translated "Sweet One",
but many other hieroglyphs
also mean "Sweet One". Carob
was also used for energy, so
Nedjem was probably a sweet
and particularly energetic kitten.
