Just like touch and vision, cats' hearing is an important tool in their daily life. Cats have the widest hearing range among carnivores - 10.5 octaves!

At the lower end of the register, hearing in cats and humans has a similar spectrum. But cats can hear high pitches much better (about 1.6 octaves higher). Of course, most of the features of cat hearing are related to detecting prey, not to communicating with other cats.The cat's outer ear amplifies the frequency of sounds and is designed to direct sounds that are difficult to recognize into the ear canal for further analysis.The ability of cats to move each ear separately allows them to detect the source of a sound - whether it's prey, a predator, or a kitten crying for its mother.They can also rotate each ear almost 180 degrees, which allows them to make sure someone is not approaching them from behind.

These cats are such amazing creatures!
