How do cats' body shapes help them survive in the wild
Cats' eyes have very well adapted photoreceptors for seeing in the dark and to help spot and catch their prey. Their ears have also been adapted for hearing better.. The tail on cats is usually long and flexible, aiding in balance. Domestic cats have a compact, flexible body-making it easier to move. Also, cats have retractable claws, with the cheetah as an exception- for domestic cats, this helps them be a better pet. In order to help them move swiftly, cats walk on the tips of their toes, as opposed to on the balls of their feet like dogs. Also, compared to other mammals the cat's small intestine is much smaller. This allows for a quicker metabolism and more energy intake. The ability to purr is also an adaptation for cats, this is greatly showcased in domestic cats. In large cats, the bones by the throat are partially cartilage, therefore the throat is more flexible and able to support a roar. In small cats, the throat bones are rigid so roaring is not possible.
