RE: Hard life of an engineer cat
One reason that kittens sleep so much is because a growth hormone is released only during sleep.

Interesting, but he is not a little kitty anymore, he has about a year and a half and still prefers to sleep a lot! I wonder if he ever stop waking me up in the middle of the night instead :))
Some cats have survived falls of over 65 feet (20 meters), due largely to their “righting reflex.” The eyes and balance organs in the inner ear tell it where it is in space so the cat can land on its feet. Even cats without a tail have this ability.
