+A female cat is called a queen or a molly.
+In the 1930s, two Russian biologists discovered that color change in Siamese kittens depend on their body temperature.

+A cat's brain is more similar to a man's brain than that of a dog.
+A cat has more bones than a human; humans have 206, but the cat has 230 (some cites list 245 bones, and state that bones may fuse together as the cat ages).
+Cats have 30 vertebrae (humans have 33 vertebrae during early development; 26 after the sacral and coccygeal regions fuse
+The cat's clavicle, or collarbone, does not connect with other bones but is buried in the muscles of the shoulder region. This lack of a functioning collarbone allows them to fit through any opening the size of their head.
+The cat has 500 skeletal muscles (humans have 650).

+Cats' hearing stops at 65 khz (kilohertz); humans' hearing stops at 20 khz.
+A cat sees about 6 times better than a human at night, and needs 1/6 the amount of of light that a human does - it has a layer of extra reflecting cells which absorb light.
+Recent studies have shown that cats can see blue and green. There is disagreement as to whether they can see red.

+Cats can be right-pawed or left-pawed.
+A cat cannot see directly under its nose.
+Almost 10– of a cat's bones are in its tail, and the tail is used to maintain balance.
+The domestic cat is the only species able to hold its tail vertically while walking.
+If a cat is frightened, the hair stands up fairly evenly all over the body; when the cat is threatened or is ready to attack, the hair stands up only in a narrow band along the spine and tail.
+A cat has approximately 60 to 80 million olfactory cells (a human has between 5 and 20 million).
+Cats have a special scent organ located in the roof of their mouth, called the Jacobson's organ.
+Cats dislike citrus scent.
