The shape of a cat's mouth

Cats are one of the common pets of human beings, and they are loved because of their lovely appearance and unique personality. The shape of the cat's mouth also varies from species to species, but in general it can be divided into three types: V-shaped mouth, U-shaped mouth and flat mouth.

1, V nozzle

Cats with a V-shaped mouth are usually short-haired varieties, such as British short-haired and American short-haired. The most obvious feature of this mouth shape is that the upper and lower lips are inverted V-shaped and the lower lip is thicker. Because V-mouth cats have thicker lips, they are usually more flexible than other cats and can capture and chew food better.

In addition, cats with V-shaped mouths often have rich expressions, and their mouths can change into more shapes, such as opening wider and sticking out their tongues.

2.u-shaped nozzle

Cats with U-shaped mouths are mainly long-haired varieties, such as Persian cats and Siamese cats. The shape of this mouth is characterized by a U-shaped upper and lower lips and a thin lower lip. Cats with U-shaped mouths are not as flexible as cats with V-shaped mouths when eating, but their mandibles are strong and they can chew food quickly. In addition, cats with U-shaped mouths are generally smaller and more delicate, which can better reflect their noble temperament.

Step 3: Flat mouth

Flat-billed cats are mainly short-haired oriental breeds, such as Siamese cats and Maine cats. This type of mouth is characterized by a wide and flat mouth and relatively parallel upper and lower lips. Although the flat-billed cat has a flat mouth and does not protrude, its chin is very prominent, which can make the facial lines more beautiful. When it comes to eating food, a cat with a flat mouth can catch food better, so it will face a higher attack rate in the face of food that requires certain skills such as biting bones.
