The cat's navel is a myth or a reality?
From a purely scientific point of view, navels are present in all animals that the mother carries within her. It is logical, in fact, that they must receive nutrients and oxygen during their intrauterine formation and development.
Kittens, the mother-cat nurses about two months (65 days), after birth of each kitten comes the placenta. She herself snacks the umbilical cord to each of her born babies.
From this it is logical to assume, even without deep scientific knowledge, that the umbilical cord was attached to the placenta on one side, and to the kitten on the other. Hence, every cat and cat, like every person, has a belly button, regardless of whether the cat is an Abyssinian , a British or ordinary "pooch"!
