Cats are full of surprises! Here are some fascinating facts that even cat lovers might not know.
Unlike humans, cats lack taste receptors for sweetness. They simply can’t taste sugary foods!
Cat purrs vibrate at a frequency that promotes healing in bones and tissues — for them and even for humans!
Whiskers are ultra-sensitive and help cats detect objects and movement in complete darkness.
Cats don’t usually meow at each other — they develop a unique meow to communicate with their human!
They’re among the top sleepers in the animal kingdom — conserving energy for hunting.
Cats don’t sweat like humans. They cool off through the tiny sweat glands in their paw pads.
Just like human fingerprints, each cat has a distinct nose print that can be used for identification.
Cats can rotate their ears 180 degrees. Each ear has 32 muscles that allow cats to rotate them independently to detect even the faintest sounds.
Cats can jump up to 6 times their length. Their powerful hind legs let them leap incredible distances — perfect for hunting and escaping.
