  LMF: Roy Robinson on White Cats
Cats also tend to be deaf in old age as the ear ossicles become less mobile and nerves in the inner ear degenerate.
The conclusion to be drawn from the analysis is that deafness in white cats is an aspect of a syndrome of effects of the dominant gene W and is inherent in all cats with the gene.
The objection to breeding cats with the W gene centres on the deafness and this appears to be mainly aesthetic.

  Cats
Respiratory illnesses that affect cats are due to infections by bacteria or viruses, and the upper respiratory tract is usually affected.
The cat's mouth and teeth are adapted to their role of hunting and catching prey, while the tongue is equipped with hooked, abrasive papillae used for grooming.
Cats do not often get cavities in their teeth, but bacteria and debris may sometimes build up on the tooth surface to form plaque, and when mixed with minerals in the saliva, this hardens into tartar or "calculus".

The cat accepted this form of travel so readily that when camp broke, and the donkeys were being packed, she'd await the appropriate moment, then fly to the packsaddle in anticipation of her journey.

 Halfbakery: intelligent cats-eyes
You could have it so one cats eye transmits half a message to cars, the full message to the next cats-eye, which would then transmit the next half of the message to the car to only deliver notices to cars travelling in a certain direction.
Traffic light status - the traffic light would transmit it's colour to the cats eye which would then propogate for a pre-determined distance down the road (set by the range of applicable unique identifiers for each cats-eye), and straight into the cars for audible or otherwise notification to the driver.
Road signs - they can transmit "get in lane" or "stop sign ahead" or the speed limit or whatever to the cats-eyes for notification to your car, which would really help in poor visibility conditions.

Some Siamese cats engage in a practice that denizens of rec.pets.cats have dubbed "smurgling", wherein the cat holds a piece of material, usually a blanket or sweater (but sometimes human skin), in its paws and kneads it, while happily sucking and/or drooling on it.
Still, most cats enjoy the sensation of being brushed or combed, and this is a good way to remove excess fur and keep it from ending up on your clothes or your furniture.
Most Siamese cats reach sexual maturity at an early age - it is not uncommon for a female to experience her first heat at the age of 5 months.

"Cat's Eye" presents the retrospective of Elaine Risley, a middle-aged acclaimed artist who discovers that she cannot move into the future as she is still trapped in the past, because of the childhood trauma caused by Cordelia, Elaine's tormentor and soul-mate.
Elaine was so deeply scarred by the sinister girly "power-games" of her childhood years that she lost herself, her memories, and "became" a cat's eye: cool as cold marble, detached, and almost devoid of feeling.
