Are Cats Color Blind? Recognize Colors That Are Feared And Viewed By Anabul

YOGYAKARTA Choosing colorful toys and cute beds is very adorable for cat lovers. Starting from pastel color to perfect patterned contrast color, can cat vision capture colors like humans? Apparently, the cat's vision mechanism is different from humans. If humans have two types of special cells that help with light vision and three color vision. The cat only has two cones of color vision in their eyes.

Launching The Spruce Pets, Wednesday, March 15, cats are considered to have two types of cones, one is sensitive to blue and blue, while the other is sensitive to blue-green. From this assumption, the blue-green and red colors may not be seen by cats as easily as humans can see them.

Research has ever found out whether cats are really trichomatic. This study shows that the type of third cone in cats makes them sensitive to the feel of cyan, which describes the combination between the blue and green. But there is another study that opens up the possibility that cats can actually see a human-like color spectrum during the day but may not be as bright as the capture of human vision. So, the cat's world may seem more pastel.

Although the cat's eyes are less sophisticated about capturing colors. But cats have a stick in their eyes so they see their eyes very sensitive even though light is limited at night. This is why cats can see in dim light or without light.

Cats are krepuscalar, meaning they are most active at dawn and dusk. Being able to distinguish colors at these times is not as important as being able to see well in poor lighting. Cats also have a wider field of sight than us, covering 200 degrees while humans only have a field of vision covering 180 degrees.

It is not fully understood by experts whether cats are color blind or normal. Regarding color, it is difficult to distinguish the extent of their color vision. Maybe red toys don't look red for your cat at home. It is also important to understand, red and green blind, blue yellow blind, and monochromaticism is inherited in humans. Cats may have similar properties, but cannot be ascertained to date.

It is also not known exactly what color the cat is afraid of. But for sure, according to the PetMD, cats are afraid of new or unknown foreign objects. Especially if the object is large and has a funny smell according to the cat. They need time to adjust and familiarize themselves with a strong aroma and a big size.

If you've seen a viral video, cats are afraid of cucumber, the reason is not as imagined. Cat fears, because in general they have never seen a cucumber object before. So they are afraid or maintain self-defense by running or attacking. Of course in the end varies to the life history of each cat.
