In the womb all cats practice future skills. Ultrasound has been recorded of both a domestic cat and a lion practicing the skills they will need once they are born. One example of the skills they practice is cleaning themselves. Information from National Geographic's In the Womb: Cats. I watched the show awhile ago, it was interesting.

I bet you weren't expecting this fact, The Lion king is a complete rip of an anime called Kimba The White Lion. The Lion King came out in 1994 while Kimba has been out since the 1960s. The controversy between the two has never been settled. ( https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/96/Kimbasimba.JPG )
Although Tezuka (creator of Kimba and Astro Boy) did get a license to make a manga of Bambi. Does something smell fishy to you?

All cats (even the big ones 8D ) eyes shine in the dark because of the tapetum, a reflective layer in the eye, which acts like a mirror. They also need 1/6th less light to see than humans which is why they can play and hunt in the dark.

In tigers, the recessive gene that causes the absence of fur pigmentation (aka. a white tiger) also causes the animal to be cross-eyed.

Margays can turn their ankles 180 degrees, allowing them to climb head-first down trees--some have even been documented hanging from branches with only one foot! Talk about the monkeys of the cat world.
