One of the smartest of all the pet animals is the cat and it is a popular house pet. They have their own way hence a longer time to train them. Cats are more preferred as they kill rats, the most hated rodent in the kitchen, provision stores as it spoils everything and the cat being smart without the rat’s knowledge traps and kills. They have good eyes which glow in the dark and prefer a dim light as they can see well. They if trained can; oopen the door and ring the bell. They have a good memory. They remember people who are friendly to them and who are cruel to them. When they are happy they purr and when angry growl. The cats mew when they enter and leave the house. When they are scared or meet an enemy they arch their backs.The cat family also includes the larges ferocious animals like the lion the king of the forest, tiger, leopard and like. They have similar habits and clever hunters. They eat meat but house cats love milk and fish. They can jump over walls and climb trees. They do not require bath. One of the cleanest of all the animals. The mother cat chooses a dark place to give birth and it does not want its kittens to see the bright light as they can open their eyes ten days after birth. The Egyptians worship cat as Gods. Many people regard black cat as unlucky. A famous quote is ‘when the cat is away the mice will play’.
