No, cats do not really have nine lives (which, by logical extension, would mean they could die eight times and resurrect themselves). This is a folklore myth which came from the observation that cats seem to be able to extricate themselves from a number of situations which would have killed a dog or a human. Cats are still susceptible to injury and infection, and once they die once they are dead and not coming back.
No, like every living thing they only have one life. This a myth that was spread Long ago when people saw a cat fall from a tree and survive, they thought it used one of its nine lives. However cats can almost always land one their feet, this helps they avoid most injurys from falling from heights.
No. It's an old wives tale. The reason they say that is because when they fall they usually land on their feet. Also they are very hard to hurt due to their flexibility and agility meaning they can fit through most gaps. (Unless the cat is unusually fat).
my cat is fat and it jumped off a 2 story building landed on its feet no harm at all my other cat did the same thing
Is it true cats have nine lives? Well, they actually don't have nine lives. This is because cats land on their feet whenever they drop and some people believe cats have nine lives is because they are just superstitious about this kind of stuff. Cats are also nocturnal which means they get 8-9 hours of sleep each day. That is also another reason some people think cats have nine lives. Also, the expression "That Cat Has Nine Lives" means that that cat survived something drastic. THE END
