why do people say that cats have 9 lives2007-11-25 12:31:49Answers:
Cats seem to survive a lot of things you throw at them. For example, cats have the wonderful ability to land on their feet. If they fall out of trees, they're usually safe and only a slight bit spooked.
Cats are also very much like the mountain climbers of today when they climb up things. That is potientially dangerous.
It seems that cats can bounce back from many things, so that may be why people began to claim that cats had nine lives.
But of course, this is an old saying. I don't know if anyone even remembers where the reference came from to begin with. Sorry I'm not too helpful.
it is just a figure of speach because cats are very mischeif and you think that they have nine lives because you think they will live a long time because they create such mischeif.
cause they always land on their feet and are very flexible!duh!
People say that cats have nine lives because they've been known to survive falls that would be fatal to other animals; they do so using a "righting reflex".
because they do! Cats seem to keep living through it all, even when you think they should be dead they are still purring.
