    1. Cats have barbs on their tongue: Cats' tongues contain tiny barbs called papillae, which help them groom their fur and remove loose hair.

    2. Cats can dream just like humans: Cats experience REM sleep and can dream just like humans do.

    3. Cats can see ultraviolet light: Cats have a reflective layer in the back of their eyes called the tapetum lucidum, which helps them see better in low light and also allows them to see ultraviolet light.

    4. Cats can't see directly under their nose: Due to the shape of their face and the position of their eyes, cats have a blind spot directly under their nose.
