SUMMARY:
- Cats can make up to 100 different sounds! In comparison, dogs are capable of producing only 10.
- While many cultures see black cats as a sign of bad luck, they’re really loved in others. In the English Midlands, black cats are an excellent wedding gift.
- The first and only cat to go to space was Felicette (aka “Astrocat”) from France. She took off in 1963 and went as far as outer space.
- Cats normally have one to 9 kittens in a litter. Back in 1970, a Burmese/Siamese cat from Oxfordshire, UK, gave birth to 19 kittens, of which 15 survived. This made the cat a Guinness World Record holder.
- The first cat, or more likely its prehistoric relative, lived on Earth 30 million years ago. It was named “Proailurus,” meaning “first cat” in Greek. The pet cat’s family appeared 12 million years ago.
- The oldest cat breed on Earth is the Egyptian Mau. Its ancestors walked the planet more than 4,000 years ago! If you ever find yourself in Egypt, you’ll know how to say “cat” — it’s “mau.”
- If you’ve ever wondered how to name a group of cats, there’s a special word for it: clowder. Other names are clutter and glaring for adult cats and litter for kittens.
- Have you ever noticed how cats never meow at each other? In fact, they purr, spit, and hiss at each other, only meowing at humans.
- When cats need something from their owner, they can adapt their meow to manipulate humans! Who would say no to a kitty that sounds like a crying baby?
- Just like humans, cats can be right- and left-handed — sorry, pawed. Most female cats are righties; most males are lefties.
- You might love to travel, but can you compete with Hamlet, a true jet-setter? The kitty that escaped from his carrier in the air spent 7 weeks aboard the airplane and covered a total distance of 373,000 miles!

- If you think milk is the best treat you can give your cat because it’s a natural product, you’re wrong. Just like most adult mammals, cats can be lactose intolerant!
