Study reveals how cats manage to squeeze themselves into small spaces (and the reason is fascinating!)

Black and white cat squeezed into small box.

We often joke that cats are liquid for their abilities to fit into the tiniest spaces, and now scientists have confirmed that this is because cats are unusually aware of their body shape and size.

If you’re a cat parent yourself, you’ll no doubt be familiar with times your kitty seems to pop up out of nowhere expecting one or two of the best cat treats, or times your cat has decided that the tiny cardboard box you were planning to throw out would make a great bed.
