Dogs
1) It's a myth that dogs are color blind. They can actually see in color, just not as vividly as humans. It's about the same as our vision at dusk.
2) If never spayed or neutered, a female dog, her mate, and their puppies could product over 66,000 dogs in 6 years!
3) A one year old dog is as mature, physically, as a 15 year old human
4) The bible mentions dogs 14 times
5) Obesity is the #1 health problem among dogs
6) Dog's nose prints are as unique as a human's finger prints and can be used to accurately identify them
7) Dogs have no sense of “time”
8) Smaller breeds mature faster than larger breeds
9) The Wizard of Oz's Toto was played by a female Cairn Terrier named Terry
10) Dogs are all direct descendants of wolves
Cats
1) A cat's heart beats twice as fast as a human heart, at 110 to 140 beats per minute.
2) Calico cats are almost always female.
3) If your cat is near you, and her tail is quivering, this is the greatest expression of love your cat can give you. If her tail starts thrashing, her mood has changed
4) Don't pick a kitten or a cat up by the scruff of its neck; only mother cats can do this safely, and only with their kittens.
5) Your cat loves you and can “read” your moods. If you're sad or under stress, you may also notice a difference in your cat's behavior.
6) The domestic cat is the only cat species able to hold its tail vertically while walking. All wild cats hold their tails horizontally or tucked between their legs while walking.
7) A single pair of cats and their kittens can produce as many as 420,000 kittens in just 7 years.
8) Sir Isaac Newton, discoverer of the principles of gravity, also invented the cat door.
9) A cat will amost never “meow” at another cat. This sound is reserved for humans.
10) In English, cat is “cat.” In French, cat is “Chat.” In German, your cat is “katze.” The Spanish word for cat is “gato,” and the Italian word is “gatto.” Japanese prefer “neko” and Arabic countries call a cat a “kitte.”
