Some Interesting Facts About Cats


Aside from dogs, cats are also popular as household pets. Below are some interesting information about our feline friends.

  • The anatomy of the front and back paws are different. The front feet have five toes, while the hind paws have 4, all with 18 toes.

  • We are familiar with a cat’s meow, but cats can produce several vocal sounds to communicate what they think or feel.

  • Cats are excellent jumpers. They can leap as high as five feet or more.

  • “Kindle” refers to a group of kittens, while “clowder” refers to adult cats.

  • Cats do not have sweat glands.

  • The surface of a cat’s tongue has tiny spines called papillae, which serve an essential purpose in grooming. Cats can catch loose hair when they groom because of the papillae.

  • A cat’s nose pad has a unique ridges pattern, which is similar to a human’s fingerprint.
