They have kept us company for thousands of years, nearly 23 million of them live in French households, and sometimes they even lead us around by the nose… Dogs and cats are taking over the Cité des sciences et de l’industrie. You’ll learn everything there is to know about our canine and feline friends in this exhibition.
Over the past twenty years, ethology ‒ the science of animal behavior ‒ has made tremendous progress, overturning many misconceptions about dogs, Canis familiaris , and cats, Felis catus . Their abilities, sensitivity, and intelligence are demonstrated every day. Interactive and fun, the exhibition provides a comprehensive overview of our current knowledge of dogs and cats. Step into the bodies and minds of your favorite pets before exploring how they have become part of our societies. A major event, Chiens et chats makes its grand return to the Cité, significantly expanded, following its first presentation in 2015 and a world tour. Updated content, redesigned features, new interactive activities, and a refreshed exhibition design: the exhibition has been groomed to perfection to offer you a brand-new visitor experience!
