Can cats see in the dark?

Answer by  luluwilkinson (79)

Cats have excellent night vision. They have pupils which open wider than humans' pupils do, and this enables them to see prey in very low light situations for the purposes of hunting. Cats eyes are the results of millions of years of evolutionary development and a rich ancestral history of hunting prey.

Yes. Cats have elliptical shaped pupils that narrow in bright light, and expand at in low light so they can see they can see extremely well at night.

Cats cannot see in total darkness, but their pupils are designed to let in more light than the human eye, so they can see better than us at night.

Cats have crystal in their eyes that allow them to see in almost no light, but they cannot see in total darkness.
