How do cats always land on their feet?
This sounds like a question that would clearly benefit from an empirical, experimental approach.

My last cat could do all three of those things. He was big enough to open the front door to get out and trained the neighbors to let him back in. Tomorrow is the 3rd anniversary of his death and I still miss him terribly.

I had a couple of different wonder cats in the past. One was a master thief. I kid you not, she brought home a package of chicken legs, still completely wrapped and cold.

More importantly has anyone performed the classic Fark experiment of putting lipstick on a cat’s butt hole to find out if it touches the kitchen counter directly or not.

Seems as good a time as any to wonder out loud whether I’ll see a cat on a space station in my lifetime.

One that roams free? In zero gravity?
As soon as space stations are privately owned, but I’m not going.

If they always land on their feet, how would they get there?

Gotta swing 'em real hard by their tail to beat that special ability.

Actually… ahem… Actually, a cats terminal velocity, slowed by a parachute effect from spreading their legs and using the excess skin between to slow their descent, means that falls from higher than about 15 stories and below about 9 stories (of a high rise building) are survivable.
They only have to worry about the height in between.
Let me see if I can find the documentary evidence I hazily recall.
I think it was a BBC documentary I saw it on originally but here’s a BBC news story with some details.
