What are the pros and cons of an American Shorthair cat?
The advantages of the American Shorthair include a friendly temperament and strong adaptability, allowing it to settle into a new environment and bond with its owner quickly. They are also sturdy, muscular, and have good digestion, rarely suffering from vomiting or diarrhea. They are intelligent and easy to train, able to learn tricks like sitting and shaking paws. The downsides are a strong curiosity and high activity level, which can leave the home in disarray, and a greedy appetite that may harm gut health if they steal human food.

What Do the Barbs on a Cat’s Tongue Do?
A cat's tongue is covered in tiny, backward-facing barbs called papillae, formed from hardened (keratinized) cells. These barbs help cats groom their coat, grip and taste their food, and hold prey steady while hunting — and a rare genetic variation can leave a cat with a smooth tongue that needs extra care from its owner.
