A cat’s cerebral cortex contains 250 million cells — just one million fewer than a bear’s! This is in spite of a bear’s brain being 10 times larger than a cat’s.

Not only do cats have emotions (as anyone with a cat knows), the part of their brain controlling emotion is almost identical to a human’s.

Cats can get a form of motion sickness from watching fast-moving objects on a screen. The intensity a cat experiences this type of distress can vary between felines.
