Not all cats are as intelligent as each other, but some breeds are considered smarter than others. It is not the most important factor, but some cat breeds have better memory, trainability and problem-solving abilities.

Cats are a million times more amazing than many people like to give them credit for being, but we know that they are super cool. They’re relaxed, happy, and they never really bother you (unless it’s 3 am and they’re ready to play, but who is counting?). Cats are very great animals to have around the house, especially when you consider that being a pet owner is a job that will help you live longer (I promise that’s a medical fact and not something I made up).

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
