Re: Beginning time of the domesticated cat:
Did you know that domestic cats can run about 30 miles per hour
The cat's tail is an extension of its backbone, and the flexible tail helps a cat keep its balance and land on its feet when it falls
A cat can move each ear independently, and improve its hearing by aiming the cup of its ears in the direction from which a sound is coming
A cat's sense of smell is 14 times stronger than a human's
Cats have 244 bones in their bodies! (About 40 more than humans)
Besides their noses, cats can smell with something called the "Jacobson's organ", located in the upper surface of their mouths. This is what cats are using when they scrunch up their eyes and open their mouths after sniffing something intently
Cats aren't hunters by nature; their mothers teach them to hunt!
To drink, a cat laps liquid from the underside of its tongue, rather than the top!
