Discovery – October 2020

Did you know that God made a creature that has a comb for a tongue, can taste the air with a special organ in its mouth, can see in the dark, and can measure things with its whiskers? He did. And in this issue of Discovery, we are going to learn all about God’s fantastic felines. The word “feline” is the name given to the cat family. There are approximately 40 different species of cats in the world. The tiger is the largest species. It can grow to be 13 feet long and weigh almost 700 pounds. It is difficult to determine which species of cat is the smallest. The littlest cat on record was a Himalayan-Persian cat named Tinker Toy. He was 2.75 inches tall and 7 inches long.
