An exhibition at the Cité des Sciences 10 years on: Dogs and Cats. A fun temporary exhibition at the Cité des Sciences to help us understand our four-legged companions!
The new version of Chiens et Chats l'expo opens on February 18, 2025.
This dynamic exhibition lets you slip into the shoes of your favorite pet. Throughout the exhibition, immerse yourself in new explorations to understand and see the world through their eyes. What is their language, their way of being and interacting in society?
Let yourself be tempted by the experiments and games for families and friends.
Of course, the 2025 exhibition has been revamped with new manipulations, new information and a new scenography.
An exhibition conceived and produced by the Cité des sciences et de l'industrie and the Fondation Adrienne et Pierre Sommer, principal sponsor.
Dans leur peau talks about the morphology of cats and dogs, their physical particularities and explains the creation of breeds and the great morphological diversity. Animations: agility test via a slalom, balance test, feline jump imitation, etc.
Dans leur tête, talks about ethology and deciphers how animals sense their environment and interact. Understanding their communication, whether olfactory, tactile, sonic, visual or postural, the animations dismantle many preconceived ideas.
In our society, we talk about the relationship between animals and our culture, about man's responsibility towards animals, and about the well-being of your dog and/or cat.
Some examples of sensory animations: experience a scene with the sensory impressions of a dog or cat. Measure yourself against dogs and cats,....
