Are cats smart?

It is believed an adult cat's intelligence is comparable to that of a 2-year-old human toddler. They have object permanence recognition and awareness of objects that aren't directly visible.

The brains of cats have a structure that is about 90 per cent similar to ours. They have 300 million neurons, and more nerve cells in the visual areas of their brain, a part of the cerebral cortex, than humans and most other mammals.

Cats are also able to pick up body language, according to a study. In one of the experiments, the animals were presented with two bowls, one empty, and the other filled with food that they couldn't see. When researchers pointed toward the bowl with food in it, nearly all of the cats walked right to it, proving they aren't as aloof as they may look.
