Cat Fun Facts

Pets are an important part of our families and our lives. Some people refer to their pets as ‘fur babies,” and some feel their pets are like their children. When our pets look at us, or as we watch them play or go through their days, we are sometimes enchanted by their appearance or their actions.

Cats are one of the most frequent types of pets and their owners are unanimous in proclaiming their cuteness. When they chase their tails, play with beams of light, or stare at us with their wide, imploring eyes, we fall in love with our cats a thousand times a day.

Cats are mysterious creatures and often can seem to want to keep us guessing. One of their many mysteries is the question, why do cats have tails? It is widely known that cats have tails, and not all animals do. It's even harder to comprehend how they are unique to cats and their purpose in a cat's life.

Cats are famously known for their independent nature and curious personalities, but how are they really? It turns out cats possess sophisticated brains that rival those of many mammals. In fact, cats have been found to be like some primates — making them one of the smartest domesticated animals in existence.
