3/ Cats see spirits.

It’s a theory that many share! Cats would be able to see beings invisible to our human eyes . Cats sometimes stare with interest at something you can't see.

The main reason is thought to come from cats' unique vision. They would indeed be able to perceive a broader spectrum of vision than ours. These felines would thus see lights or things invisible to our eyes.

This would be the most plausible explanation for this phenomenon. However, nothing is certain and there are still many disturbing paranormal reports, where cats feel attacked by an invisible force. Let's remember, threatened cats turn their backs, meow and have bristling hairs.

4/ Cats have excellent long-term memory.

These adorable animals have the ability to remember their owner for a very long time . They establish strong affections with those who spend a lot of time with them. They won't forget you, they can even find their way back if they get lost.

The short memory of the cat can reach, can last up to 16 hours, while that of the dog does not exceed 5 minutes.

It is particularly on the criterion of long memory where the cat excels. If the latter had a bad experience with his former master, he will not forget it for years and will be wary of humans.

5/ They can survive incredible falls.

It is said that a cat has 9 lives.

Indeed, these animals have very good resistance and the ability to endure difficult experiences. They can even resist serious illnesses such as cancer for a very long time.

Additionally, cats can survive impressive falls. According to an American study in 1987, it was admitted that:

• The higher the height, the more terminal velocity the cat gains. If, for example, a cat falls from a building of more than 5 floors, a sort of parachute effect is triggered . It can survive a fall from this height in 90% of cases, if it is treated quickly.
• During the study, some cats fell 26 stories and survived with absolutely no injuries.

How do they manage to survive such falls?

In the wild, cats live a lot in trees and they have a habit of falling from a very young age. It is very likely that this animal species has developed increased resistance for this reason.

They are able to balance themselves, so as to land more or less without injury. So, convinced by this superpower? 🐱
