we answer 10 of your most burning questions about cats and dogs

• Hey there, my name is Shima, I'll be reading out the questions and answers

• I'm Danger Dolan and I'm here to blow your mind with truth

10 – Do cats really have nine lives?, • No, of course not. They actually travel

back through time to warn themselves about the car that's about to hit them, or to

maybe not finish chewing through electrical wire – but after the 9th time their time

travelling fuel runs out and they must return to their home planet, CATANIA

• No, they only have one life just like everyone else. They're so quick at getting

out of danger though that people used to joke about a cat having more than one life.

9 – Why do dogs like it when we pet them?, • Rubbing a dogs fur actually gives them

energy to run around and play games – if you were to never pat a dogs fur again, eventually

it would completely run out of energy and slowly turn into a statue – which is why

we find so many cat and dog statues buried in the sands of Egypt

• Dogs groom each other to show love and that they are part of the same group or pack.

Petting your dog is kind of like this—it tells them that you love them and that they

are a part of your family, your pack! 8 – Do cats always land on their feet?,

• Of course! And if you strap buttered toast to a cat's back, it'll turn into an anti-gravity

machine! Since the cat can't land on its feet and toast NEVER lands buttered-side down,

the cat will float in mid-air – go ahead, TRY IT

• When a cat falls, they twist their body around so that their feet touch the ground

first. Sometimes though, they don't have enough time to flip around and they can't land on

their feet. 7 – Do dogs dream?,

• No, because overnight a dogs brain melts into goo and slowly rebuilds itself into a

new shiny brain by morning – we don't know why this happens but it explains why

some dogs don't remember how to sit when you ask them to

• Though we don't know for sure why dogs or even people dream, scientists think that

all mammals—warm furry animals—dream. So when you see your dog's legs twitching

or hear them softly barking while you know they're napping, that means they're dreaming!

6 – Why do cats hate the water?, • Have you ever heard of Schrodinger's

cat? Mister Schrodinger was giving his cat a wash one evening when he accidentally dropped

it into the water – and you know what it did to the cat? The awful, brutal truth? The

water soaked into the cats skin and transformed it into a DOG

• When soaked, cat fur gets heavy and the cat doesn't like it since they can't shake

out their coats as good as dogs can. However, every cat is different and some love the water,

especially if they live in a hot and dry home! 5 – Do dogs really only see in black and

white?, • Dogs have been around since the 1960s

and TVs could only show black and white videos back then, but nowadays everything is in colour

and dog scientists haven't been able to figure out how colour works yet, but they're

getting close • Nope! Though they don't see as many colours,

dogs do see in colour. Dogs also tend to be near-sighted—they can see stuff close up

but things get blurry far away—however they can see moving things at a distance much better

than people can! 4 – Why do cats rub their faces on everything?,

• This is their way of apologising for something, but it's up to you to figure out what it

is – they might've chewed up your Nintendo console, clawed the face off your Elsa doll,

or left a stinky brown package on your bedsheets • When a cat runs its face on something,

it leaves their smell on it. By doing this, a cat can make their home smell more like

them, which makes them feel safe. When cats do this to you, it's their way of getting

to know you and also showing you their love. 3 – Why are there so many different kinds

of dogs?, • Once upon a time there was only one dog,

but he got exposed to radiation and his puppies mutated into weird subspecies - all with superpowers.

Initially they fought crime but over the years they've gotten lazy so now they just bark

a lot and request food • A long time ago, when dogs first came

to live with people, people wanted their dogs to be able to do certain things for them.

Over time, by always picking those dogs with those abilities, dogs changed based on what

was being asked of them. For example, bloodhounds got super sensitive noses and greyhounds became

sleek and fast! 2 – Do cats and dogs have super powers?,

• You won't believe this, but cats have the power to push a single pen off an entire

desk, and dogs can walk around on FOUR LEGS - go home Kangaroo, because a cat can sleep

SEVERAL TIMES A DAY *WOAH* • In a way, they do! They can't fly or lift

cars like super heroes, but a dog's nose is WAY more sensitive that a person's, around

a thousand to a million times better! Cats can see in the dark six to eight times better

than people—that's like wearing night vision goggles!

1 – Can cats and dogs get jobs? • They already do have jobs, while you're

off at school or asleep, cats and dogs are busy deducting tax from your parents superannuation

and inventing squeakier chew toys that they hope you'll buy for them one day – and

you definitely should • Of course! Both cats and dogs cuddle and

relax with patients in hospitals and even visit grandparents in retirement homes to

keep them company. Dogs can also work as guide dogs for the blind, herd sheep and other animals,

and even help rescue people.
