According to pawsonline.net, 2,500 years ago the Persians, knowing the Egyptians considered cats to be sacred, took live cats to the front line of battle. The Egyptian soldiers would not attack in case they accidentally killed one of these animals.
During the blitz in England a cat nicknamed "Bomber" could tell the difference between the sounds of RAF and German aircraft at a distance, and thus became a good early warning system for its human companions. There are several instances when cats have saved the lives of whole families. Seeing their cats dashing to shelters, people would follow, getting to safety just before the bombs started to fall.
