cat adaptions could be their whiskers or their tail or eyes or feet something that has a reason to it like their whiskers are for to be able to see if they can fit in small gaps and so on.
Cats have evolved to be very efficient predators. They have been so successful that there are many species and can be found all over the world.
Here are some of the cat's adaptations:
- A strong, flexible spine which can contract and stretch.
- Strong muscles that are perfect for creeping up on prey then provide explosive bouts of speed.
- Hooked retractable (with exception to the Cheetah) claws. Hooked claws help hold onto struggling prey or to grip tree branches to climb if in danger. Cats have retractable claws which keeps the claws sharp and free from damage when walking or at rest.
- Specialized teeth that are designed to hold, kill and shear flesh off prey. A cat's teeth and strong jaws can even crunch down on bone if the bone is small enough.
- Very good eyesight for hunting at dusk or dawn.
