Probably, but the appendix serves little funstion anyway.
There is a major difference between an appendix in a human and a cat. Namely, cats do not have an appendix, while people do. The appendix has no use within the body, but can sometimes become infected and will need to be removed.
The appendix is the feature of the human cecum that isn't found in cats. Although the human appendix doesn't have a determined function, some scientists speculate that it produces and protects beneficial bacteria.
Cats do not have appendix and humans do.
In herbivores like horses and sheep, the appendix is called the "blind end" and apparently still does serve some function in digestion. I believe that cats and dogs to have an appendix, but it is not vermiform (long and skinny) like the human appendix; thus it may be less likely to get infected.
Yes. Most animals don't have an appendix. Apes and monkeys have an appendix like a human's (a long tube), and rabbits and a few species of other rodents have a more sack-like appendix. None of the other animals has one.
"Vestigial" like the human appendix.
Vestigial structures like the human appendix exist because they were once functional in our evolutionary ancestors but have lost their original purpose over time.
The appendix is said to have no function in the human body, but it actually plays a small role in the lymphatic system.
appendix means a slender outgrowth or an appendage to the original structure. But the word appendix is loosely used for 'vermiform appendix'. Vermiform means worm like. vermiform appendix is, a vestigial organ of the human body, located at the start of large intestine (prcisely caecum).
NO. Even if the cat had "human-like" hair it wouldn't be human hair because it grew from a cat.

as far as i know....nothing......like the appendix it does nothing but used to when we were evolving.
