Cats' Eyes

Did you know that cats have really good vision compared to humans? They have great peripheral vision and can detect motion (eg a beetle walking across the floor) from 3 miles away and if a cat was human sized its eyes would be 8 inches long.

This excellent eyesight comes at a price as cats are blind as bats close up.




Even with my poor vision I can tell the difference between this cat litter tray (right) and a brush pan (left) and if I catch the little bugger who keeps peeing in the brush pan everyone will be able to see the brush inserted firmly up its backside!
