Before we get started…
This adorable video is so remarkable, we promise you won’t believe your own eyes! Neither did 75-year-old Rodney Holbrook when the mess he left behind after his handiwork magically seemed to tidy up itself! The pensioner set up a trail cam to discover what was really going on, and the result is absolutely astonishing.

Spaying or neutering a cat will completely change their personality
YOU’RE RIGHT!
While some of your cat’s behavior can be hormone-driven, their overall personality won’t change. A scaredy cat, for example, won’t suddenly become outgoing – no matter how much we want them to. Some negative behaviors can however be prevented or reduced by spaying or neutering your cat, such as spraying, mounting or fighting.

Chocolate is not only dangerous for dogs, but also for cats
YOU’RE RIGHT!
Chocolate contains a substance called theobromine, which cannot be metabolized by cats. As a result, the theobromine will build up in your cat’s body and lead to serious conditions, particularly liver failure. Some symptoms of chocolate poisoning in cats are restlessness, diarrhea, vomiting, increased breathing rate, elevated temperature, muscle rigidity, and seizures. Darn it, now you’ll have to eat all the chocolate yourself…

Indoor cats don’t need to be vaccinated or dewormed
YOU’RE RIGHT!
Even though Fluffy might not be allowed outside, they could still come into contact with pathogens and get deadly diseases, even without direct contact with another pet. You wonder how? Just think of the dirt that sticks to your otherwise white shoes. Luckily, effective vaccines against these diseases exist, so make sure to get your cat their shots. Also, don’t forget to deworm your indoor cat, as even they can get worm infections from pathogens you or other pets brought in.

Kittens from the same litter can have different fathers
YOU’RE RIGHT!
This phenomenon is called superfecundation and is fairly common in cats. A female cat is fertile for up to 7 days on end. Therefore, if she gets several male cats between the sheets – or leaves, in this case – during this period, her eggs can be fertilized by various males, causing the litter mates to have different fathers. Note that 1 kitten can only have 1 biological father though. That would be quite the family reunion, huh?

A cat will happily live a vegetarian life.
YOU’RE RIGHT!
Cats are obligate carnivores, which means that they need high-quality meat proteins to survive. Our felines need taurine and arginine to stay healthy, and these amino acids can pretty much only be found in meat. So, while veggies do bring your cat various benefits, it’s the big, juicy steak your cat really needs
