Despite all the popularity of cats in the modern world (and the Internet), we still know quite little about what goes on in their heads.

How cats see the world

They see nearby objects blurry; up close, these animals recognize objects mostly through their senses of touch.

Cats have binocular vision, which means they see objects with both eyes at once.

Their field of view is located in the center, which helps them better focus on the selected object.

What color do cats see people

Cats, like people, are trichromats.

This means that their retinas contain three opsins, allowing them to see combinations of red, blue and green.

Cats see almost the same color palette as humans, but paler.

Why do cats look at the window

The cat is attracted to smells and sounds coming from outside.

In the summer, when the windows in the house are open, felines experience a whole range of smells and sounds.

By the way, for cats they are much more important than vision.

Cats' sense of smell and hearing is much more developed than that of humans.

What emotions do cats have

A cat has basic emotions - affection, joy, anger, anxiety, fear. More complex feelings, such as sadness or guilt, are not typical for them.
