In spite of the great care bestowed on cats, there can have been no lack of mice in Egypt. In one nomos or province the shrew-mouse was sacred, and a satirical, obscene papyrus in Turin shows us a war between the cats and mice; the Papyrus Ebers contains poisons for mice.

"I confided my pair of cats to the care of one of the Egyptian servantsat the palace, feeling sure that these enemies of the rats would keep mydwelling clear for the future; indeed I began to feel a certainveneration for my deliverers from the plague of mice.
