8 Weird And Funny Facts About Cats

7. Two are possibly better than one

Adopting a pair of cats is likely to be less labor than adopting a single cat. Because bonded dogs can entertain each other, they require less attention from you and are less likely to vent their boredom or anxiety on your home.

It’s not much different than dealing with a single cat because they’ll be feeding at the same time and possibly using the same litter box.

Adopters who bring home a pair of cats typically receive discounts from shelters, so it’s far less expensive (not to mention less stressful) than going back and obtaining another cat a year later once you discover you can never have enough cats. Source:1, 2.

Scientists believe this is due to a genetic abnormality that affects the key taste receptors.

Cats, unlike most mammals, have taste receptors that are primarily interested in meat. Source
