Are cats smart?

It's an opinion, but cats are quite smart. This may seem strange, but for some reason my black and white cat Avalanche "uses the bathroom" in my toilet! I think cats are one of the smartest animals I know, excluding dolphins.Cats are the most intelligent Carnivores, with house cats being the very smartest and leopards being the smartest of the big cats.---The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is the brain region has been implicated in planning complex cognitive behaviors, personality expression, decision making and moderating correct social behavior.Cats have a very small prefrontal cortex, therefore have a hard time with executive function relating to abilities to differentiate among conflicting thoughts, determine good and bad, better and best, same and different, future consequences of current activities, working toward a defined goal, prediction of outcomes, expectation based on actions, and social "control" (the ability to suppress urges that, if not suppressed, could lead to socially-unacceptable outcomes).http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefrontal_cortexHumans have the largest prefrontal cortex than any other animal.This is all well documented and researched. Cats have a very small almost non existent one. That is why cats react to things and are very bad at getting trained to do things.Yes. They are very smart. They aren't book smart, like math and language, but they are very smart in the ways of survival and catching your mistakes.


Are Ragdoll cats smart?

Cats are incredibly smart, though some breeds of cat can be considered more 'intelligent' than others, though this is debatable. Someone can train their cat to do a variety, much like a dog or any other pet, if they begin at a young age. There are times when cats learn to open doors, boxes etc, and the internet can likely provide many examples of cats doing spectacular things! Sometimes, these things aren't even taught purposefully to the cat and they are simply things the cat learns to do on its own.

Dogs are smarter than cats you fool?

While dogs are smarter than cats in many ways, cats also have their smart points too. Dogs are smart at working in groups, but cats are smart in working as an individual. Dogs also tend to be easier to train with tricks, but cats are also less picky, and are smart enough to be outside on the street alone. There is no proper judgment of the smartness of dogs and cats contrasted.
