Cat Naps

if you have ever watched a sleeping cat they apear to twitch and move, and sometimes even make a noise.

Do they dream, and if so what do they dream about :?:

Do they dream in colour (Do they see in colour) :?:

Mike ...

I seem to remember from biology lessons at school that cats don't see in colour the same as we do. The retina is made up of rods and cones which are sensitive to different things. The cat's retina contains many more rods than cones and it is the cones that see colour. The more rods, coupled with their ability to open their irises to the extreme, enable them to see in the dark so much better than we can.

Something like that anyway! :-?

I learnt from a programe on the TV that their sight is also tuned to see moving objects rather than stationary ones.

They also shake their head after landing from a high jump, this settles the fluid in their inner ear.

Clever Moggys ;-)

Thats diff from what I heard..
I heard Cats CAN see in colour but DOGS can't...
Clever cat... Aren't cats ALWAYS clever clogs!?

New research has shown that cats DO dream, but not in deep sleep like us, in light sleep. As soon as the 3rd eyelid comes over they can dream...

I always thought that cats see in shades of grey.

No! Colour!
I have even noticed they like colourful thing more than dull things! :-P
