Two cats sharing body heat. The normal body temperature of a cat is between 38.3 and 39.0 °C (100.9 and 102.2 °F). [17] A cat is considered febrile (hyperthermic) if it has a temperature of 39.5 °C (103.1 °F) or greater, or hypothermic if less than 37.5 °C (99.5 °F).

Schrödinger's cat. Schrödinger's cat: a cat, a flask of poison, and a radioactive source connected to a Geiger counter are placed in a sealed box. As illustrated, the quantum description uses a superposition of an alive cat and one that has died. In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition.
Brain size. The brain of the domesticated cat is about five centimetres (2.0 in) long and weighs 25–30 g (0.88–1.06 oz). [1][2] If a typical cat is taken to be 60 cm (24 in) long with a weight of 3.3 kg (7.3 lb), then the brain would be at 0.91% [3] of its total body mass, compared to 2.33% [3] of total body mass in the average human.
Cat senses. The large ears, eyes, and many vibrissae (whiskers) of the cat adapt it for low-light predation. Cat senses are adaptations that allow cats to be highly efficient predators. Cats are good at detecting movement in low light, have an acute sense of hearing and smell, and their sense of touch is enhanced by long whiskers that protrude ...
Felidae (/ ˈfɛlɪdiː /) is the family of mammals in the order Carnivora colloquially referred to as cats. A member of this family is also called a felid (/ ˈfiːlɪd /). [3][4][5][6] The 41 extant Felidae species exhibit the greatest diversity in fur patterns of all terrestrial carnivores. [7] Cats have retractile claws, slender muscular ...
Consumer–resource interactions are the core motif of ecological food chains or food webs, [1] and are an umbrella term for a variety of more specialized types of biological species interactions including prey-predator (see predation), host-parasite (see parasitism), plant-herbivore and victim-exploiter systems.
Cheetah's tails can be nearly 3 feet long, or over 80cm long. Taking these measurements together makes some cheetahs nearly 8 feet long, or over 230cm long, from their nose to the tip of their tail. ^ "About Cheetahs". Cheetah.org. They can measure from 40 to 60 inches in length, measured from the head to the hind quarters.
