Why are cats the favorite pet of creative people going back to the Pharaohs in ancient Egypt as well as today?

It is a medical fact that stroking a cat can lower your blood pressure. They have a calming effect on many people, particularly when they purr. And just look at a cat at rest, if you want to learn what "relaxing" is all about.
