  • Cats are crepuscular; meaning they are most active during the twilight hours of dawn and dusk.
  • On average, a cat sleeps for 16 hours a day.
  • Cats are carnivores and get all their nutritional needs from its prey.
  • Cats need meat-based protein and fat more than any other nutrients. A cat only needs approximately 3-5% of carbohydrates in its diet.
  • A cat's body consists of about 67% water. Coincidentally, that is approximately the percentage of water in the prey they catch and eat in the wild. A cat feeding in the wild or on a wet food diet meets its moisture requirements just from the food it eats.
  • Cats have a low "thirst drive" and will not often seek out water on their own unless severely dehydrated. This is derived from their desert-dwelling ancestors.
  • The most common food related Allergies are caused by corn, corn gluten meal, wheat, wheat gluten and soy. These ingredients are found in abundance in many dry foods and some low quality wet or canned foods. It is advisable to stay away from such foods that have these ingredients.
  • Foods that are high in corns and grains are the main cause of obesity in cats. Cats cannot derive nutrients nor can they digest these carbohydrate-high foods properly, so often if gets stored as fat.
  • A cat has 30 teeth: 12 incisors, 10 premolars, 4 canines and 4 molars.
  • It is not proven that dry food cleans a cat's teeth. Kibble is hard and brittle, so shatters at the tips of the teeth - providing little or no cleaning friction.
  • Cats cannot taste sugar as they have no need for it in their diet.
  • Many cats are lactose intolerant and get sick from drinking cow's milk.
  • A domestic cat can run at speeds of 30 mph.
  • Cats can make over one hundred vocal sounds.
  • A cat loses around the same amount of fluid in saliva when grooming as when urinating.
  • A cat cannot see directly under its nose. This is why the cat cannot seem to find tidbits on the floor.
  • Besides smelling with their nose, cats can smell with an additional organ called the Jacobson's organ, located in the upper surface of the mouth.
  • They also do not always land on their feet.
  • Cats that have access to outdoors sometimes bring in dead animals for their owners. There are a few theories for this: Your cat is trying to teach you hunting skills, and the cat is showing the care and love like a mother cat by bringing the owner food.
