The following cat statements are all true except one. Can you find the False statement?
1. The bottom two rows of whiskers on a cat can move independently of the top two rolls. Whiskers tell a cat whether the space they are entering is big enough for it.
2. Puss, a tabby from Devon, England is one of the oldest domestic cats on record. He was 36 years old when he died in 1939.
3. Hunting is not instinctive for cats. Kittens born to non-hunting mothers may never learn to hunt.
4. To drink, a cat laps liquid from the underside of its tongue, rather than the top.
5. A falling cat will always right itself in a precise order. First the head will rotate, then the spine will twist and then the rear legs will align, then the cat will arch its back to lessen the impact of the landing.
6. Some cat terms: Ailurophilia, the love of cats. Ailurophobia, the fear of cats. Allogrooming, when a cat grooms another cat. Autogrooming, when a cat grooms itself.
7. Domestic cats can sprint at a fairly fast speed of about 51 miles per hour.
8. The ragdoll breed gets its name from the fact that every time it is picked up, it goes completely limp, like a ragdoll.
9. Scientists have reported that cats' supersensitivity to vibration and sound have enabled them to pick up ground tremors that precede hurricanes and earthquakes.
10. The nose pad of a cat is ridged in a pattern that is unique, just like the fingerprint of a human.
OK ladies, now all you have to do is be the first to to correctly name the one and only false statement in the above statements. And if you are the winner, then it will be your turn to post 9 true and one false statements.
Are you all game? And are you ready, Jaime? Good luck.
