All cats have powerful muscles in their hindquarters, which they use for running and leaping. Over short distances, a domestic cat can run up to 30 miles per hour. Cats can also jump up to five times their own height, and plan their landing spots with incredible accuracy.
Cat tails come in many styles.
They can be long, short, kinked, curled or even absent. Two cats, the Manx and the Cymric, are tailless, but the average cat tail can measure about 10 inches long. A cat can have as many as 28 bones in its tail. His invention featured a carpeted rolling pin that turned as the cats pawed it. Cats have a reputation for being finicky eaters, but their eating habits are just different from those of humans.
