Amazing Funny Cat Facts
Second to dogs, cats are one of the most popular pet in a
household. This does not come as a surprise considering the affectionate
nature of the cat to its owners. If you think you know everything about
your cat’s already well think again because this fun facts and trivia’s
will surely make you want to learn more:
1.Cats had been entertaining us
for quite some time now but did you know that the first ever cat show
was held in Crystal palace in London in 1871.
2.Our feline friends are of the
most valuable pets in ancient Egypt; in fact killing a cat is a
punishable crime. And if that is not harsh enough you might think that
they went overboard by punishing them with death as well. But that is a
fact.
3.Did you ever wonder why
Garfield was characterized as lazy? It’s not really because he is but
since he is a cat it is normal for them to sleep 16 to 18 hours a day.
4.Cats have a strong sense of
smell because they have two organs of smelling. They don’t only smell
with their nose but also with their Jacobson’s organ. It is located in
the upper surface of the cat’s mouth.
5.Did you ever wonder how cats
can be so flexible and can almost pass through any opening? It is
because they do not have a true collarbone. The lack of the collarbone
results for their ability to squeeze their bodies in any space that they
can get their head in through. They usually measure the opening if they
can get through with their head. So if you are planning to create a cage
or play pen for your cat, make sure that their head won’t fit and they
are surely trapped.
6.We all know that cats have
different color when it comes to their eyes. But did you know that you
can determine which cat is healthy and which is not with just the color
of their eyes. It is a fact that a large majority of white cat that has
blue eyes are deaf. On the other hand, white cats with one blue eye are
deaf only on the ear closest to the blue eye. So if the white cat has
blue right eye then the right ear is deaf. When you are buying a white
cat, you might want to make sure that they have orange eyes because they
do not have disability.
Simply amazing isn’t it? When you think you knew it all
these fun facts are hard to forget now that you know them.
