If you’re a cat person, you probably think you know them pretty well…and also not at all, because they’re an enigma. Here’s something you’d think you would know. How many toes does the average cat have?
Only 17% of cat owners got it right in a recent poll. The answer is 18…10 in front, and eight in back. With that being said, it’s not uncommon for cats to have a few extra digits. The record is 28 by the way.
92% of cat owners think they know a lot about cats…but here are a few more cat facts you might not be aware of…
1. 46% of cat owners don’t know cats are lactose intolerant. So cow’s milk is actually not good for them.
2. Only 53% know cats tend to drink more water if it’s running water. So, fountains are better than a dish.
3. Only 44% know cats sometimes purr when they’re happy or stressed out.
Last stat. Seven in 10 cat owners feel like they can usually tell what their cat is thinking. 99% of the time…it’s “murder.” You can read more about cats here at SWNS.
