@gatitaandfriends: Cats use specialized eye structures like vertical slit pupils, a reflective mirror layer, and a high density of light-sensitive cells to see extremely well in dim light. The iris uses special muscles to shrink the pupil into a tiny vertical line in bright light to protect the retina, or open wide into a large circle in the dark. This slit shape lets the pupil change size much more drastically than a round human pupil. #cat #fyppppppppppppppppppppppp #viral #cutepets #catfacts
