Before a cat (or any object) experiences free fall, they experience acceleration so they know which way gravity is pulling them. Surely, a cat can remember what happened to it in the last few seconds and instinctually put its feet in that direction?
- throwawayben 5y agoYou don't feel any acceleration from gravity - it can only be determined from other senses like vision or the air flowing over your skin/fur
- true_religion 5y agoWhat about inner ear sensations? Or the pressure of your organs pushing against one another?
- cecilpl2 5y agoNone of the above. This is because every atom in your body is accelerating at the same rate, so there's no pressure involved.
