Oh to live in The Eternal City, where discovering history under your apartment is a bore. So let the cats do the archeaology, and the foreign press get breathless and punny about it.

I want to know why they were chasing a cat at 10 pm? They are in Rome - good food, wine, etc and they were chasing a cat....
I publish your punny commentary on the theory that if Mrs. Slocombe can get away with pussy jokes for like 20 years on "Are You Being Served?" and our mom doesn't wig out, it must be okay ...
But also because learning the trade secrets of a fer-reals archaeologist is fascinating for my history nerdling readers. I want to read the article or paper on "Chasing a Wayward Moggy"!

It's a good question, but NONE of the articles I looked at answered it.
"Chasing a wayard moggy," as it happens, is how I've discovered many a site.
And I suspect that they were chasing a pussy at 10 for the same reason anyone does at anyhour: it is there.
