The exception to this is the filiform papillae that do not contain taste buds. There are between 2000 and 5000 [17] taste buds that are located on the back and front of the tongue. Others are located on the roof, sides and back of the mouth, and in the throat. Each taste bud contains 50 to 100 taste receptor cells.
"Cats can taste all of the other normal things that we can including salty, sour, bitter, and umami (meaty) flavors." However, they are also known to be able to taste other things too.
Cat senses are adaptations that allow cats to be highly efficient predators. Cats are good at detecting movement in low light, have an acute sense of hearing and smell, and their sense of touch is enhanced by long whiskers that protrude from their heads and bodies. These senses evolved to allow cats to hunt effectively at dawn and dusk.
Taste detection threshold is the minimum concentration of a flavoured substance detectable by the sense of taste. Sweetness detection thresholds are usually measured relative to that of sucrose , sourness relative to dilute hydrochloric acid , saltiness relative to table salt ( NaCl ), and bitterness to quinine .

If someone's carry-on is detected to have a cat-eye, the item is either confiscated or checked, or the traveler can find another way to remove it from the airport like returning it to their car ...
1. If the taste is sour, H+ ions, from an acidic substances, pass through their specific ion channel. Some can go through the Na+ channels. If the taste is salty Na+, sodium, molecules pass through the Na+ channels. Depolarization takes place II. Part II is the transduction pathway of the relay molecules.2. Cation, such as K+, channels are ...
The threshold value is the concentration at which an aroma or taste can be detected (air, water and fat). The recognition threshold or arousal threshold of olfactory neurons is the concentration at which you can identify an odor (air, water and fat). The odour activity value is the concentration divided by the threshold.
“They’re eating the dogs. They’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people that live there,” the Republican nominee said.
