Fun fact: cats can land on their feet to the ground but they never put their glorious bumholes on the surface. Even when they sit, we think that they are comfortably sitting but this is not true at all. Everything would be mythical if we don’t have an actual experiment. In 2004, a 6th-grade boy Kaeden Griffin had his decent answer when he conduct the research with his 2 kitties. It is enjoyable and reasonable to see, so scroll down and comprehend this smart boy’s presentation!

This is Kaeden Griffin with his finished project
Kaeden was given a science project and he chose to figure out if the cat’s butt actually touched the ground. His mom shared this interesting project on Facebook:
“Get ready for a good laugh! Kaeden completed his 6th-grade science fair project this past week and tackled the challenging task of answering the internet’s most burning question, drum roll, please.”

Kaeden’s mom reported that her son applied a little bit of non-toxic lipstick to Taco and Maya’s bum-bums within 10 minutes which was not harmful to their cats. After collecting the butt marks, they used baby tissue to wipe the lipstick off. Taco and Maya were trained some basic tricks when they were kittens so it was quite easy for the family to ask something from them.
Taco was a shorthair cat that the boy wanted to try first. Kaeden placed a paper on a carpeted surface to see if the kitty sat on it but he left no lipstick stain. The same result with the carpet, Taco proved that he didn’t want to completely sit on the tiles. With Maya, the boy and his mom figured out this longhair kitty said no bumhole to any surface!

Kaeden had to do a lot of research to find out if the cat’s bumhole really touches every surface in the house
“They were then given a series of commands (sit, wait, lie down, and jump up. Side note: Both cats have been trained since kittenhood with a variety of commands, they also know how to high-five, spin around, and speak.) They were compensated with lots of praise, pets, and their favorite treats, and the lipstick was removed with a baby wipe once we collected our data in just under 10 minutes.” – Wrote Kaeden’s mom.
Kaeden used his two cats for his project. A short-haired cat named Taco and a long-haired cat named Maya. He put non-toxic lipstick on their bumholes for this

“His results and general findings: Long and medium-haired cats made no actual contact with soft or hard surfaces at all. Short-haired cats made no contact on hard surfaces, but we did see evidence of a slight smear on the soft bedding surface. In conclusion, if you have a short-haired cat and they may be lying on a pile of laundry, an unmade bed, or another soft, uneven surface, then their butthole may touch those surfaces!”

Maya refused to sit on the actual sheet of paper they placed for her. So they inspected the carpet where she sat and it was clean
