Cats' tongues are covered in papillae, tiny spines made of keratin. In larger cat species like cheetahs, lions, and tigers, the spines are much bigger, and people who have been licked by them have described it as being similar to low grit sandpaper.

Cats don't just bring you dead animals as a present, they're also trying to teach you how to hunt your own mice. I also read that if your cat sleeps at the foot of your bed, it wants to protect you.
the street cat that took residence in my garden catches several myna birds a day (he's huge, the size of a medium dog, but it's not that he's fat, that fucker's ripped, like a miniature tiger), he's really friendly to people tho
it's good, mynas are an invasive species, and he's gotten really good at catching em, he hides near a tree or bush they like to be in, he's light brown and with a stripy pattern, same color as a pile of twigs, and he hides in a pile of twigs, they don't even notice and he kills em with one slap to the neck, i saw a severed myna head next to his hiding spot a few days ago, he fuckin decapitated a bird w/ a single slap

he always wants to get in my house, but my father doesnt like cats
he also likes to slap dogs (w/ claws retracted) and run away, and i saw him actually kill and eat a jackal, i think the jackal was twice his size, jackal passed next to his pile of twigs, he jumped the jackal, they rolled into the bushes in the struggle, and he was trying to drag the carcass up the tree adjacent to the twig pile before giving up and eating like a third of it right there and dragging the rest to the enterance to my house
 
Cat wangs have barbs on them.
Scientist think the barbs stimulate ovulation and dig out jiz from other cats.

Feline reproduction is unique in that queens (female cats) can be bred at any time during their heat cycle because they are induced ovulators, meaning ovulation is triggered by the act of mating. This means that queens do not ovulate until the male's penis stimulates the vagina. A single litter can have multiple fathers if the queen mates with more than one male.
