How About a Little Game of Cat & Mouse?


Cat saliva makes mice cower in fear.

Don't believe me?

Then check out the new scientific study that explains how the special sensory organ in mice detects the proteins found in a cat's saliva.  When the organ detects these proteins, it sends a signal to the brain to be fearful.  Okay, so the BBC folk can explain it better than I can.  Check it out here!
 
What does your cat have to say about that?!
