16. Cats are only truly able to sweat out of one body part: their paws. Not only that, but when they groom themselves, their saliva evaporates off of their fur, which cools them, not unlike how sweating cools humans.
It’s interesting that cats control so much of their body heat through their paws. Also, how cool is it that all of that grooming actually serves two purposes? They get clean—and get to cool themselves off.
It makes you wonder if that’s a more or less effective way to cool off your body compared to sweating. They’re both pretty gross, to be honest.
