Sorry to interrupt the trivia...

Queen Ruth was put to sleep earlier this afternoon. She is survived by a grieving father, Mikey.

God save the Queen, may she rest in peace.

You're correct highlite 36

The top two rows of a cat's whiskers can move independently of the lower two rows. This allows maximum perception of the cat's immediate surroundings
