And cats can stimulate the cortex to produce and secrete vitamin D by basking in the sun, and then absorb vitamin D by licking their fur.

Cat's Nose

There are more than 200 million olfactory receptors in the cat's nasal cavity, so the cat's sense of smell is very sensitive. And cat nose has a unique nose pattern in the world, just like human fingerprints, no cat in the world has the same nose pattern as another cat.

Therefore, cats can be identified by identifying their nose prints, but they will never cooperate obediently~

Sometimes cats lick their noses to restart their sense of smell, and their tongues With one lick, all kinds of residues (such as pollen, dust, cat litter dust) can be completely removed from the nose, so as not to affect their thinking and judgment.

Cat's whiskers

Cat's whiskers, also known as feeling hair, can help cats sense distance and direction and temperature, and can even express emotions. Whiskers are a barometer for cats. When they are resting, their whiskers are mostly stationary; when they are excited, such as playing or hunting, they point forward.

If you look closely at the cat's ears, you can find that its ears seem to be a little deformed. In fact, this is their normal physiological structure. This is called the external ear flap, which can help cats detect high-frequency sounds.

The Cat's Tail

The cat's tail is the cat's rudder, which helps the cat maintain its balance while jumping.

The reason why a cat's tail can swing very flexibly is because its tail is lined with the bones of the tail vertebra. A cat with a long tail can have 18 tail vertebrae.
