Firstly, cats are bright enough to know that they want to land on their feet since it will hurt a lot less that way!
Cats have both a really remarkable sense of balance and a very flexible spine which lets them twist themselves around in mid air to land on their feet.
Not always though… They can be too young or too old for that, and they need a certain fall height to have time to twist round. I guess it is a more than handy ability to have when you are so curious and like to climb on to just about anything, anywhere, anytime!
I have no idea. But imagine what would happen if you stuck a piece of buttered toast face up (always lands butter side down) onto a cat (always lands on its feet). Would the 2 just cancel eachother out or will it create anti gravity and some sort of wormhole?
