 INTERESTING CAT FACTS


The Cat’s maximum speed is 30 mph.

It’s average lifespan is 13 to 14 years. However, although their lifespan varies, a well cared for cat may commonly live to 15 or beyond, and some make it to 18 or 20. A few extraordinary felines even pass 25 or 30 years of age.

Cats can't see fine detail or rich color, but have a superior ability to see in the dark because of the high number of rods in their retina that are sensitive to dim light. As a result, cats can see using roughly one-sixth the amount of light that people need.

Cats are obligate carnivores, which means that they rely on nutrients found only in animal products. Cats are hunters that look for prey that contains high amounts of protein, medium amounts of fat, and a small amount of carbohydrates, and their diet still needs these same things today.

    I like this piece because it's about cats, and I like cats. I used to have a cat. He died when he was 18. But, I wonder if you own a cat. I thought it was really good.

    Wow, I didn't know cats could live up to 25 or 30 years old. That's cool. I wonder how many years the oldest cat lived?

    I enjoyed how you explained how cats can see in the dark, and what they need for their diet. I have a cat who loves to sleep during the day, and stay up late at night. Why do cats do stay up all night and sleep all day?

When she was a teenager she had already started being involved in the movement by making study groups, which eventually got broken up by the police. According to the site Wikipedia.org, “In 1970, guns belonging to Davis were used in an armed takeover of a courtroom in Marin County, California, in which four people were killed.

                       Is Mining Beneficial or Harmful? Mining can be both beneficial and  harmful. In order to see what's best let’s look at the pros and cons of mining. Mining can benefit us a lot by giving us important resources. It provides us with fossil fuels and metals. Without mining we would not have some of the resources we need for fuel in cars. Or we wouldn’t have some of the metals that we need to build things.  According to the authors at the  site Environmental-Conscience, “ Mining is also important to ensure a high level of technological progress. Our industries rely on natural resources from mining and without sufficient amounts of resources, our technological progress would be slowed down sufficiently.” Another benefit to mining can also give jobs to  some of the poorer people on the planet. Mining can provide people with needed jobs in places where there are not a lot. Especially in many ...
