cat description


A skilled predator, the cat is known to hunt over 1,000 species for food.
It can be trained to obey simple commands. Individual cats have also been known to learn on their own to manipulate simple mechanisms, such as doorknobs.
Cats use a variety of vocalizations and types of body language for communication, including meowing, purring, hissing, growling, squeaking, chirping, clicking, and grunting.
Cats may be the most popular pet in the world, with over 600 million in homes all over the world.
They are also bred and shown as registered pedigree pets.
This hobby is known as the "cat fancy."
