  • How Old Is Your Cat in Human Years
  • Our cats don’t think of themselves as small humans. Rather, they think of us as large cats.
  • Puss, a cat from England, lived to be 36 in human years: the oldest cat on record.
  • Many people think that cats are colorblind, but it’s a myth. Now we know that cats can see blues, reds and greens.
  • One litter of kittens can be produced by more than one father.
  • Groups of kittens are “kindles,” while groups of adult cats are “clowders.”
  • A cat's sense of taste is keener than a dog's sense of taste.
  • A cat's tail held high means happiness. A twitching tail is a warning sign, and a tail tucked in close to the body is a sure sign of insecurity.
  • A cat's tail plays a vital part in the cat's balance and in the "righting reflex" that allows it to land on its feet after falling from a height.
  • A cat keeps purring, no matter if it is inhaling or exhaling.
  • A cat in a hurry can sprint at about thirty-one miles per hour
  • A cat has more bones than a human; humans have 206, but the cat has 230 (some cites list 245 bones, and state that bones may fuse together as the cat ages).
  • A cat has approximately 60 to 80 million olfactory cells (a human has between 5 and 20 million).
  • “Aaaah, the cat really loves you, look at it rubbing its head against you, that’s so sweet!” When a cat rubs its head against you it is marking you with its scent gland (behind its ear). “Oh…”
  • Violin strings have never been made of catgut. The belief that they were was started by old violin manufacturers who discovered that sheep intestines made great violin strings and so they started the catgut myth to put aspiring string makers off the scent
  • It’s always worth just checking you’re not sitting on its tail. Cats purr both as a sign of pleasure and pain.
  • Cat owners tend to see their cat’s reluctance to get wet as a sign of their aloofness and superiority. In reality, cats dislike water because their fur doesn’t insulate them when it’s wet. Rather like humans, they don’t like to get cold!
  • What’s the first thing you think of when someone says Iran and Iraq? Cats? Probably not, but perhaps you should. Firstly, Persia was the old name for Iran, but its name lives on in the famous Persian long-haired cat. The name, Tabby, comes from Attabiyah,
  • During the Spanish Inquisition, Pope Innocent VIII declared cats to be evil and thousands were killed. This may have lead to an explosion in the rat population which in turn brought about the Black Death. The message is clear, don’t mess with cats!
  • The technical name for a hairball is "bezoar".
  • A cat that bites you after you have rubbed it's tummy is probably biting out of pleasure, not anger.
  • Cats can see up to 120 feet away. Their peripheral vision is about 285 degrees!
  • Most cats in Halifax, Nova Scotia and in Key West, FL have at least 6 toes.
  • Cats can make over 100 vocal sounds. (Dogs can only make 10)!
  • There are over 500 million domestic cats in the world (but none like me!).
  • Average cat will sleep 14-16 hours a day!
  • Cats have 32 muscles that just contol their ears!
  • All cats have 4 rows of whiskers
