Compared to the human level of intelligence, the average IQ of a cat is equal to that of a three-year-old child.
Which cat breeds have a high level of intelligence

This breed is considered one of the most active.
Animals of this breed have a good memory and easily learn various tricks.
What kind of memory do cats have
They remember the gait, voice and other characteristics of the person who feeds them, and will run up to him even after a while.
They will not approach a place or person that has hurt, frightened, or threatened their safety and survival.
Cats remember not only the appearance of their person, but also his smell, because each person has an individual smell, and this allows the animal to identify its owner.
The cat remembers these smells well, and they remain in her memory for a long time.
