Are there right-handed and left-handed animals? 0 6

In animals, the front limbs primarily serve for movement, and their effectiveness is achieved through the coordinated use of both paws. However, in situations where it is necessary to reach something on a surface, some cats prefer to use their right paw, while others favor their left.

If access to the target is difficult — for example, when it is on the 'inconvenient' side — the animal easily switches to its 'less favored' paw. Many individuals (according to some reports, about 25% of cats) are ambidextrous, meaning they can use both paws equally effectively.
