The Law of Cat Thermodynamics

In the latest edition of Feline Physics, we look at the mysterious phenomenon of why cats get so warm. A quick check of the interwebs provides the following explanation: “A cat’s natural body temperature is 102° F, which is significantly warmer than our body temperature of 98.6° F. Also, cats have a lower sensitivity to heat than humans. The heat sensors they do have are concentrated in their faces, making this area especially receptive to heat.” This sounds pretty science-y, so for now, let’s hope Joey can warm up from being in close proximity to Penelope’s warm, fire-like glow.
