No. Cats do not always land on their feet.
I have a lot of cats. Some are more coordinated than others.
Some can jump off the roof, or off the back of the truck, and land comfortably. Others can't jump off the dining room chair without doing a nosedive.

Of course that's not true. First if cats don't fall from a high enough height then they won't land on their feet and two, the same as you and I, if a cat falls from too high they will either die from the impact or damaged suffered due to impact.

Well cats do have the ability to land on their legs from what ever height but getting a bit realistic, I think that if its a huge amount of height, it will end up dying.

No no no. You cannot throw a cat from like a 10 story building and expect it to live. It's just not possible. I think the most would be no more then 8 feet.

I have seen this all too many times where some idiot tries it and drops a cat, yes it will land on its feet, but all of its legs may be broken and the cat will need to be put to sleep (killed!)
Does that answer your question?

any body can laid on there feet from heights it might not feel good but you can but it you go trying to take a cat the top top of a tower and dropping her then that would be a obvious answer i cat can laid on its feet just as much as a human can so if your thinking of throwing them off jump with them I'm sure it will be just as fun

For first-hand information and forthwith knowledge, you should try it yourself. Then, when you survive, query us again with your same question, but in a different perspective. One More thing... have you ever considered what "animal cruelty" is. I hope you're not going to do this for fun? As a matter of fact, don't even try it as a project. Try skate-boarding instead.

No. There is a limit to how high a cat can fall. Although cats can survive falls from higher areas than most creatures, they can be injured end even killed if they fall from too high a place.

If you throw your cat, it might die. But if it is willing, it can survive. There are cats that can survive from 46 floors high.
