Hmmmmm, My cat has a couple holes in his fur around his neck, could it be from fighting? I'm going to check him closer to see if he has some extra eyes.

The same reason the holes in human's skin is always in the right places for theirs, I imagine.

Answer 10

Great Question! It's one of those coincidences - like what was the chance of Jesus being born on 25 December. Wow

Answer 11

luck at a guess

Answer 12

It doesn't. When they are tiny weeny kittens the fairies come and decide where the fur should and shouldn't be. Its a delicate procedure, too much fair dust and fluffy has a eye in his forehead!

Answer 13

Oh man I'm laughing my ars off.

Answer 14

probably they are cut after recognizing where the eyes are...

Answer 15

Do you know a single cat that would tolerate it any other way? To make my point, place any cat inside of a paper bag with two holes in it and close it. Wah lah! Look into the bag, and you'll see that the cat is facing the holes.

Answer 16

Answer 18

Answer 19
