The cat is one of the smartest of tame animals. They are independent and harder to train. Cats are valued for their gentle, affectionate natures. They respond to loving owners with loyalty, affection, and respect. Not only are the cat's eyes beautiful but these eyes are the largest in proportion to body size when compared to other animals.
Cats are clean and have been praised for their mysterious, exotic looks.
