Cats

Hello welcome back to my blog! Now I will tell you about the cutest animal in the world! You must know the answer is cat, do you like or love cats ? or maybe have one in your house ? 

The cat is a small, usually furry, domesticated, and carnivorous mammal. They are often called a housecat when kept as an indoor pet, or simply a cat when there is no need to distinguish them from other felids and felines. Cats are often valued by humans for companionship, and their ability to hunt vermin and household pests.

Cats are similar in anatomy to the other felids, with strong, flexible bodies, quick reflexes, sharp retractable claws, and teeth adapted to killing small prey. Cat senses fit a crepuscular and predatory ecological niche. Cats can hear sounds too faint or too high infrequency for human ears, such as those made by mice and other small animals. They can see in near darkness. Like most other mammals, cats have poorer color vision and a better sense of smell than humans.

Despite being solitary hunters, cats are a social species, and cat communication includes the use of a variety of vocalizations(mewing, purring, trilling, hissing, growling, and grunting), as well as cat pheromones, and types of cat-specific body language.

Cats have a high breeding rate. Under controlled breeding, they can be bred and shown as registered pedigree pets, a hobby known as cat fancy. Failure to control the breeding of pet cats by neutering, and the abandonment of former household pets, has resulted in large numbers of feral cats worldwide, requiring population control.

Since cats were cult animals in ancient Egypt, they were commonly believed to have been domesticated there,but there may have been instances of domestication as early as the Neolithic from around 9500 years ago (7500 BC).

Cats are familiar and easily kept animals, and their physiology has been particularly well studied; it generally resembles that of other carnivorous mammals, but displays several unusual features probably attributable to cats' descent from desert-dwelling species. For instance, cats are able to tolerate quite high temperatures: Humans generally start to feel uncomfortable when their skin temperature passes about 38 °C (100 °F), but cats show no discomfort until their skin reaches around 52 °C (126 °F),and can tolerate temperatures of up to 56 °C (133 °F) if they have access to water.

Cats conserve heat by reducing the flow of blood to their skin and lose heat by evaporation through their mouths. Cats have minimal ability to sweat, with glands located primarily in their paw pads,and pant for heat relief only at very high temperatures(but may also pant when stressed). A cat's body temperature does not vary throughout the day; this is part of cats' general lack of circadian rhythms and may reflect their tendency to be active both during the day and at night. Cats' feces are comparatively dry and their urine is highly concentrated, both of which are adaptations to allow cats to retain as much water as possible. Their kidneys are so efficient, they can survive on a diet consisting only of meat, with no additional water, and can even rehydrate by drinkingseawater.

Cats do eat grass occasionally. A proposed explanations is that cats use grass as a source of folic acid. Another proposed explanation is that it is used to supply dietary fiber.

Bandung Spot : "Taman Rumput Sintesis"

On 1st January 2015 I and my mom went to "Taman Rumput Sintesis" in front of Mesjid Raya Agung Kota Bandung. It's located on the center of Bandung City. I went there by ride motorcycle and arround 3 pm we arrived there. 

When we got there we were greeted with trafic jam and many vehicle parking. Initially I did not know there will be many people who go to this place. My mother said this place is a new place inaugurated in late 2014. A lot of people who come to the place and was curious to try this synthesis grass, including myself :).

Reportedly making the park with artificial turf is spent Rp 6 billion, which is initiated by the mayor of the city of Bandung, Pa Ridwan Kamil. he graduated from the city of Bandung Institute majoring SAPPK (School of Architecture, Planning and Policy Development) *subject who wanted me to enter Aamiiin 0: -)* want people to feel comfortable and have a bandung of green open space. This synthetic grass was imported from china and breadth of the country reach the square 4000m.

Don't forget to open your footwear if you want to try out the sensation of walking on grass synthesis or photographed while lying down. If you come at a time when the afternoon you will feel the cool afternoon breeze that blows from the trees that are in beside park, then we can immediately worship prayer in Mesjid Raya Agung Provinsi Jawa Barat Kota Bandung. Don't forget to visit and good luck!

Natural Phenomena : Gates To Hell

Archaeologists have discovered a “gate to hell” at a dig site in Turkey.

The ruin is known as Pluto’s Gate, and was fabled as the doors to the underworld in both Greek and Roman traditions. The gate is known as the Plutonium in Latin.

The cave where the ruins were located emit dangerous and poisonous gasses, much like the gate was said to do in Greek mythology.

The “door to hell” is not the remnants of a strange alien attack. Rather, it is an enormous pit of fire that can be found in the heart of the Karakum Desert. This pit has been burning for more than 40 years, and one could argue that it is not exactly “natural” as a few geologiests accidentally set said pit on fire. The hole is located in Derweze, in the middle of the Karakum Desert in Turkmenistan.

The geologists were worried that the hole would lead to the release of poisonous gases, so they decided to (try to) burn it off. They hoped that the fire would burn all the fuel within days. They were wrong, very wrong. The gas is still burning today. The hole is 230 feet wide (70m).

Those looking for supernatural meanings could certainly come up with many to describe this surreal site. The actual origin of this oddity, however, is far more mundane. In 1971, a group of geologists drilling in the Darvaza area accidentally punched through the rock to a deposit of natural gas. The ground crumbled and fell away beneath the drilling equipment.
