Cats have 230 bones in their body compared to 206 in humans. The extra bones are mostly in their spine and tail, giving them incredible flexibility. A cat's collarbone is free-floating, not attached to other bones, which is why they can squeeze through any opening their head fits through. Their spine contains 30 vertebrae compared to 24 in humans, allowing them to twist their body mid-air and always land on their feet.

Cats have a specialized collarbone that lets them always land on their feet. The free-floating clavicle combined with an extremely flexible backbone allows cats to perform a mid-air righting reflex in as little as 0.3 seconds. They twist their front body first, then their back body follows, using their tail as a counterbalance. Kittens develop this ability by 7 weeks old. Surprisingly, cats falling from higher floors often survive better than those falling from lower ones because they have more

Cats spend 30 to 50% of their waking hours grooming. This obsessive cleaning removes parasites, distributes natural oils, regulates body temperature, and reduces stress. Cat saliva contains a natural deodorizer and antibiotic. However, this constant grooming is also why cats develop hairballs. A cat's tongue has backward-facing barbs called papillae made of keratin, the same material as human fingernails, which act like a built-in comb.
