Is there anything in the book of revelations about some sort of cat? Odd I know but I keep noticing things.

There's no mention of cats in the Bible at all. One of the reasons may possibly be that the Egyptians held cats in extremely high regard, and we all know Egyptians and Israelites didn't exactly get along.

Well if you wanna get into a broader sense the Bible mentions Lions which are genetically related to cats.

But yeah, none of the kitty cat variety. Which is odd, because there are cats in Israel. I petted a kitty named Jimmy in the Last Supper room. :)

Cats are not in the Bible.
Therefore they don't exist.

There are at least 2 kinds of cat mentioned in the Book of Revelation.
Specifically, the lion and the leopard (yes they are species of feline):

Revelation 4:7 And the first beast was like a lion, ...

Revelation 13:2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, ...

Blessings,

I'd still say those are felines, not cats .. cats are the furry balls that can sit on your lap.

Technically they ARE cats. The cat family extends beyond just your harmless little felix domesticus.

Yeah, because those that say a cat is not mentioned in Revelation are only saying that because of some type of bias against the feline family.....lol
