A cat’s daytime vision is also good because its strong hunting ability gives keen observation to quickly catch fast small animals. Also, its eyes sit more to the sides, giving a wider horizontal field of view. But its vision is poorer than a human’s, only about 200 degrees.
Also, a cat’s retina has few cone cells that help recognize blue, green and yellow but not red. As a nocturnal animal, its vision is sharper at dusk and night.
