Ask most people and they will tell you that there are only two kinds of people in this world: cat people and dog people. When it comes to owning pets, most people make the choice between a dog and a cat. Dog-owners swear by the loyalty and playful nature of their canines, while cat people appreciate the warmth and fierce independence of their cat.

Today’s domestic cat is still genetically linked to the remaining 38 wild species of cat within the genetic family Felidae. Sometime around 7500 BC, cats were domesticated by civilizations in the Near East, though the most popular tales come from Ancient Egypt where cats were domesticated and venerated as a species starting around 3100 BC.
The obverse of the Silver Three Sleeping Cats Round features the image of three individual house cats curled up together for warmth. While domestic house cats no longer live in the wild, it is impossible to take the wild traits out of the DNA of these creatures. This design shows how cats would still act to survive in the wild, huddling together while sleeping for warmth and protection. In this design, the three cats have their heads in toward the center with their bodies outward. This helps form a vortex-style design.
On the reverse side of 1 oz Silver Three Sleeping Cats Rounds is a depiction of the Intaglio Mint logo. The mint logo sits at the very center of the design field, with a beaded border and the full mint name immediately surrounding it. The larger background field has a swirling pattern with the identifying hallmarks engraved around the edge of the design field.
