Why Do Cats Knead? NEW: See the most adorable kitten “making biscuits.” Why do cats knead? Cats are interesting creatures, with many traits and behaviors that are easily recognized as being uniquely feline-the way they curl up tightly to take a nap, for example, or their characteristic grooming rituals after enjoying a meal. Another common feline behavior is kneading, a motion cats make by pushing in and out with their paws, alternating between right and left. Some cats knead with claws completely retracted, while others will extend their claws as they push in and retract as they pull back. Kneading is sometimes colloquially referred to as “making biscuits,” because the motion resembles a baker kneading dough. Explanations for the kneading behavior vary, but it is without doubt an instinctive trait. Kneading may also go back to the days when wild cats patted down tall grass or shredded leaves to make a soft, fluffy bed for sleeping or giving birth. There’s also a more practical aspect to kneading.

Jaguar: The Animal Files Main Characteristics The Jaguar is the third largest feline, the tiger and lion being the only ones larger. They have a body length of between 1.1 and 1.9 m (3.5 - 6.25 feet), a tail length of between 45 and 75 cms (18 - 30 inches), a shoulder height of between 55 and 76 cms (21.5 - 30 inches) and they weigh between 36 and 160 Kgs (79 - 350 lbs). Typically females are 20% smaller than males and they generally vary in size according to their distribution, they tend to increase in size from North to South. The Jaguar is compact and well muscled. The base coat of the Jaguar is tawny, or it can be reddish/brown, and it has irregular shaped rosette type markings over its body. Melanistic or black Jaguars are far less common than the spotted form. Darker coloured individuals tend to be found in the dense forest areas as this helps them to stay hidden and lighter coloured, larger animals tend to be found in the open plains.

The 20 Awesomest Animal Battles These lemurs are too evenly matched in kung fu technique - their combat could go on forever, until the last ember of heat expires from the core of the sun. Or until they break for snacks. That fox was enjoying an old-school McRib, all frosty-like, when the bird flew up on him and was like "FOODJACKED! Bitch!" Look at this brutal elephant bodycheck. Horse fights are brutal and hilarious all at once - it's just silly that such a majestic beast gets up on all twos and bitch-slaps like an 8th grader when it's pissed. When dogs own cats, it's kind of scary.
