CataBlog #01 – First blog, Let’s get it correct

I have been working with cats for almost 25 years now and the one thing I can always count on is that the facts about cats we thought to be true in the past may change in the future. I can give a big list of facts, or maybe I should call them ideas that we thought were true but they ended up being our best guess at the time. Here are a few examples:
