A cat is said to have "nine lives", because it can escape from situations that appear fatal. Cats' wounds heal relatively quickly, they are very flexible, their muscles are designed for very rapid response, they have very fast reflexes, and if they fall, they twist in mid-air so that they fall on their feet -- there are documented cases of cats surviving falls from a tenth floor balcony. There is a standing saying when a cat escapes from such a situation, that "he has used up one of his nine lives". In fact, a cat, like any other animal, has only one life; it is just that he seems to hang onto it so very tenaciously.
