A cat has 32 muscles in each of its ears, allowing it to rotate and tilt its ears in different directions.

Cats have an amazing ability to move their ears independently of each other. This is due to the 32 muscles located in each of the cat's ears. These muscles allow the cat to move its ears in different directions, and to pick up sound from far away. This is an important adaptation that cats have developed in order to survive in the wild.

32 muscles

Cats can rotate each of their ears 180 degrees and move them independently from each other, to help them work out which direction a sound is coming from.
