Here are the last of some interesting CAT FACTS:

 

1.  Cats have 30 spinal vertebrae, five times more than humans, and frequently stand, arch and stretch to maintain their incredible flexibility.

 

2.  Only cats, giraffes and camels step with both left legs, then both right legs, when they walk or run.

 

3.  Cats can walk precisely and quietly because their rear paws land almost directly where the corresponding fore paws were placed.

 

4.  When running at full speed, cats are airborne for most fo the extended stride, without any paw touching the ground.

 

5.  Pads on the fore paws cushion movement, and the single large pad is the prime shock absorber and anti skid device.

 

6.  Skin on the pads, 70 times thicker than elsewhere on the body, provides for further protection.

Hi Kristine, didn't know this about the vertebrae... knew the thing about them being airborne with all four legs off the ground.  By the way, Greyhounds are the only dog that does this...

In many ways cats are a sign of perfect evolution and the perfect living machine.  I know if I fell on my feet from a distance my ass would be sore for weeks
