    catacombs - (wow!) noun

    DID YOU KNOW ?!

    My humans asked my vet why I (and other
    kitties) "knead" with their paws. The vet says
    that kneading goes back to kittenhood, when the
    kneading paw movements stimulated the flow of
    mother cats' milk.


    A cat's tongue has many tiny "hooks" that are
    used to help grab and hold on to food and are
    helpful in "combing" when cats groom themselves.


    Catnip is an aromatic herb that belongs to the
    mint plant family. Cats have a recessive gene
    that determines whether or not they can get a
    "high" from catnip! Some cats are not affected
    by catnip one bit! (But still, I can't imagine that
    all because of genetic fate!) I loooove catnip!





    Yeah, I know you need to know how to
    say CAT in various languages. Have fun.
