Unlocking the Mystery: What Colors Do Cats Really See That You’re Missing?
Do Cats Have Night Vision?
According to PetMD, cats do not have true night vision, but they can see significantly better than humans in low-light conditions due to several unique aspects that set them apart from humans. One reason for this enhanced ability is the tapetum lucidum, a layer of highly reflective cells behind the retina, which is the light-sensitive part of the back of the eye. The tapetum lucidum layer reflects light back to the retina, improving their vision in low-light settings. The glow you see in a cat’s eyes in the dark is a result of this reflective layer and how it interacts with incoming light.
