- A house cat is genetically 95.6 percent tiger.
- Cats can run up to about 30 miles per hour (but only over short distances).
- Cats can jump five times their height. (Imagine being able to jump more than 25 feet in the air.)
- A cat’s whiskers are the same width as his body. (That helps him determine if a space is wide enough to walk through.)
- Cats do not kill prey with their sharp claws. (Those are for firmly holding onto the animal. Cats make the actual kill with their teeth.)
- You’re an ailurophile. (Don’t take offense. It means you’re someone who loves cats.)
