Happy Friday

Some interesting things about Cats..I got this infomation from a calander and I thought some of this was cute to share with all of you..:)

1. Since Fish is rarely part f a cats diet in the wild, how did it become such a common ingredient in todays cat food? A possible reason is that during World War 11 meat was rationed , so manufacuaters looked for a substitute protein and the rest is history.

2. Domestic Cats retain many of the features their wild relatives. They manage on less water from many other animals, adapt to a variety of climates and locations, yet still need a place to call home.

3. Almost all cats shed some more, some less. In addtion to comb and brush, good nutriton can help. Pretein sources such as beef and chicken should not take a backseat to inexpensive fillers. Spending a few cents more on premium foods leads to healthier skin and hair.

4. According to Ozark country superstition its good luck if a strange black cat visits your house, but bad luck if he decides to stay. And if a family keeps black cat, woe to any daughters in the home-they will be old maids.

5. If you visit the Key West home and musem of the late Ernest Heminway and you'll find that about 30 of the dozen cats residing there have six toes on their front paws. They're descendents of a six toed cat presented to the writer in the 1930's by a sea captin.

6. While dogs rely on a combination of sight, hearing and smell to negotiate their surrondings, cats depend mainly on their eyes especially while hunting. If your eyes were as large in our faces as cats eyes are in theirs, they would measure almost eight inches in diamater.

I hope that you enjoyed reading some cat stuff today.
