Yes, I know we don’t have a topic on cats, but why not a small listening activity from the BBC, on these popular pets? Because whether you’re a cat lover or not, you’re just going to love the tricks Prince gets up to. (so cute!). What most surprises scientist is how cats behave and seem to know how to gain the hearts of humans.

How they get up to these tricks is something you’ll have to find out for yourself by watching this video from BBC.
