    Cats hearing with their eyes?!?

    I have read about that in a cat magazine the other day, and it was really confusing me: it was said cats have nerve cells in their eyes which can send (for humans non-audible) sounds to the brain.

    Well, I thought I'd know a lot about cats, but I never heard about this before. What do you think?

    Our furkids have amazing hearing, so I wouldn't doubt it. That's kind of cool, thanks for sharing that.

    I have no idea if this is really true, but it was in a cat magazine, so it wouldn't surprise me... :/
