Cool Cat Info

By Dawn Kavanaugh


If you have to break up a cat fight use a broom to separate them.

Cats land on their feet because they have a flexible spine.

Did you know that cats love dark enclosed places like your dryer? Be sure to check it before each wash.

Most lively, active kittens grow up to be friendly, outgoing cats.

After reaching maturity one cat can have over 420 kittens in her life and her kittens can do the same! YIKES- spay and neuter.

Did you know that cats are creatures of habit and have difficulty with change?

Did you know that your cat does not understand the difference between new and old furniture? So do not encourage kitty to scratch on nay furniture.

If your cat gets trapped in a tree, put an open can of her/his favorite food at the bottom of the tree and go inside. Most cats will find their way down within a few hours.

A cat's night vision is six times better than a humans.

A cat retracts its claws by flexing its toes. This protects their sharpness and lets him walk quietly when stalking prey.

Cats have a vomeronasal organ behind their front teeth that heightens their sense of smell.

Did you know that cats born with no tails have longer back legs and a shorter spine?

Most deaf cats do not meow.

Did you know that cats are lactose intolerant?

Cats eat grass to keep their digestive systems clean. The regurgitation brings up hair and other irritants.

A healthy cat's nose is cool.

Did you know that cats do not scratch things to irritate their humans? They do this to maintain their claws.

When a cat swishes its tail back and forth, she's concentrating on something; if her tail starts moving faster, she has become annoyed.

Cats rub to mark ownership. They have glands on their lips as well as at the base of the tail just so they can mark their territory.
