Hello there, id say it has to do with grooming and picking up hair by the tongue. I used to work at a pet store if that's any help. But maybe asking a vet would be better. Anyway that's all i have to say lol. :oD Catch!
Well; cats may have rough tongues to this as an extra; but it's shown that they have rough tongues which actually have some kind of small cup like bits on their tongues which allow them to lap up water because their tongues are so small unlike dogs who have larger tongues allowing them to drink water alot easier without the need for these cup like bits.
Cats are particular about cleanliness and the rough tongues help with this. Dogs are more laid back and wait for people to wash them.
Jaguars are cats. They groom themselves exactly the way house cats do: using their tongue and claws to smooth and clean their fur.
According to the ASPCA's website, mother in law's tongue, also called snake plant, is fairly toxic, tho probably not fatal to cats. It does have a host of pretty gnarly effects tho, so if your cat is curious, best to get rid of it.
Ocelots have a tendency to hang out by roads during the night because their sensitive eyes are attracted to light.
The rough bumps on a cat's tongue are called papillae. They help with grooming and pulling meat off bones when a cat eats.
Cats do have tongues, but they are covered in tiny hook-like structures called papillae, which help with grooming and eating. The rough texture of a cat's tongue also helps them to scrape meat off of bones and groom their fur efficiently.
it prob sees a sexy filine!
No, foxes typically do not let their tongues hang out of their mouths like dogs do. If a fox's tongue is hanging out, it may indicate that the fox is overheated, tired, or in distress.

The difference between a cats tongue and a dogs tongue is that a cats tongue is rough and looks like there is little teeth on the tongue. The dogs tongue is smoother than a cats and is most of the time longer than a cats tongue. Also a dogs tongue can be different colours. It seems to be said also that a dogs tongue can heel a wound.
You make my tongue hang out.
There's problems with this, but in some senses, accomodations can be reached. They will probably not be inclined to be "lap kitties", and they'll want to be outdoor cats, but they'll "let" you set out a bowl for them, and hang around your house in general.
All cats--wild or domesticated-- have a tongue. They use it to lick and to drink water. They bathe with their tongues and clean their babies. Just like in humans, the tongue helps cats to eat and swallow.
Temperature regulation is a critical tongue function for a dog. Since they don't sweat, dogs cool themselves predominantly through their tongue.
When cats drink, they stick their ngue in the water, cup the tongue, pull it back into thier mouth and then swallow it. What you are hearing is the impact of the tongue against the water.
they may mall them
Cats clean their fur, dogs don't. The reason is because cats use the tongue to clean flesh off the bones of their prey, the teeth are different than dogs teeth, made for shearing flesh, the tongue helps them clean up the meal.
A cat will clean itself with its tongue. This is the reason that cats have "sand paper tongue." A cat will lick itself clean. This is how a cat represents homeostasis Locked by Brwoser Lock.
