Nal-Myo (Felis catus praepes), commonly referred to as the flying cat, is a small domesticated carnivorous mammal. Nal-Myo is believed to have existed in the Haeseo region and other surrounding areas since about 8500 years ago, and is a species whose appearance and genetic information are very similar to cats. Nal-Myo has been domesticated by Indigenous peoples since a long time ago, when it was not presumed, and since the Haeseo pioneering, it has spread as a pet throughout Haeseo and the mainland of Joseon.
