Madagascar's forest cats, interesting: [colorado.edu]
A lot of the old sailing ships carried cats aboard to help control the rats that were ever present on ships. Considering the conditions on those ships, it's not wonder that when they got to port, some of the cats decided to explore and decided that life on land was much better than being at sea. There are probably cats in other countries who got there the same way.
Yes, the Egyptians managed to keep cats from getting to Europe for a long time, but Indian Ocean traders smuggled them out in pre-Roman times and they slowly spread across East Asia. It's just neat that a relict population of that feline diaspora still exists.
