Do cats have good hearings ??




YES...cats have an extraordinary hearing range that is well beyond that of humans. A cats can hear sounds as low as 200 Hz (and so can hear a mouse moving through grass), and as high as 100 KHz n easily hear the (and so can easily hear the 20-50 KHz of rodents vocal sounds).

Cats have mobile ear flaps or pinnae which help to collect sound and improve hearing. They also help in determining the direction from which a sound coming; but cats, like humans, do not excel in this regard.
