They have excellent depth perception at close range. Your Kitty’s field of peripheral vision is wider than yours. He can track a moving object better than you can too. Their sharpest v...
Can cats see in the dark? No, your furbaby can’t see any better than you can in complete darkness. However, they can see in very low light. They only need one-sixth of the amount of light that humans do to be able to see.

What about colors? Can your feline friend distinguish the same range of color that you do or does he see his world in black and white? Just as rods help Kitty see in dim light, cone cells are responsible for seeing in color. Cats have a much higher concentration of rods but a lower number of cone receptors than their humans. You have three types of...
Cats see ultraviolet light invisible to humans. A paper written by R.H. Douglas and G. Jeffery, published by the Royal Society, says that cats, and some other mammals, can see ultraviolet light. So if your cat is staring at something you can not see, it could be because something is reflecting a light outside of our visual ability to process. (He’s...

Cat’s eyes not only help them hunt and find their way around in low light settings but help them communicate with us. Your furbaby is talking to you with his pupils and the position of his eyelids. A cat’s pupils can shrink to narrow slits or widen into saucers. Eyelids may be fully open, partially closed, or drawn into a squint.. Alert, wide-open ...
Cats see the world the way a human who is color blind sees the world. Cats have a wider peripheral field of view than we do. Cats see well at night, but they sacrifice fine details and colors to be able to see well in dim light conditions. Our felines are perfectly designed for hunting at dawn and dusk when their prey is most active. And turning th...
16 de out. de 2013 · A new series of photographs captures what cats see. Cats may see better at night, but humans have better resolution and see more vibrant colors than their feline friends.
Even though their eyes may be small, cats possess an incredibly sharp sense of sight! They can see better than humans at night and in dim lighting due to the high number of rods in the retina that are sensitive to low light levels. Cats also have great depth perception and can easily judge distances by using both eyes together.
