Answer 1

umm actually thy can and they cant because cats can see differnt shades of black red and blue and maybe more so yes and no kitten and may see colours and may not

Answer 2

Cats responded to the colors purple, blue, green and yellow range. Red, orange and brown colors appear to fall outside cats color range and are most likely seen as dark to mid shades of gray.

Cats appear to see less saturation in colors than do humans, meaning cats do not see colors as intensely or vibrantly. Purple, blue & green appear to be the strongest colors perceived by cats.

Answer 3

They can see color, but not all that well.  They see much better than we do in low light but to get that they can't see color and detail as well as we can.  They can't distinguish certain colors from each other, red-green colorblindness, but they are not entirely colorblind.  

Answer 4

no,,they r like dogs

Answer 5

Cats can see in colour!

But during the day their vision is blurry that's why they sleep all day.

And at night they can see as well as humans during the day.

That's why they're awake most of the night.

Answer 6

It was once believed that cats are colorblind, but now it is known that they can actually tell the difference between certain colors.  Basically, they see the world in shades of blue and green.  Though they see color, cats don't pay much attention to it.  In nature, color isn't particularly necessary for a cat's survival success.

Answer 7

Keeping in mind that your cat evolved from hunters, you can understand why his sense of sight is one of his strongest. But cats are generally considered colorblind.

The retina – the nerve center at the back of the eye – contains cells called cones (responsible for converting light into color) and rods (responsible for black and white). In cats, rods greatly outnumber cones.

Theoretically, color perception is possible since the eye contains some cones, but distinguishing color isn't necessary for cats. Brightness is far more important. He can see in the dimmest of lights; his eyes can open about three times as wide as the human pupil and let in as much light as possible at the normal "hunting" times of dawn and dusk.

Because of the differences between human and cat retinas, the animals can see using one-sixth of the amount of light people need: At night, for example, objects appear six times brighter to a cat than they do to humans, which helps the animals hunt. In addition to better brightness vision, cats can also detect minute movement, which is easily missed by people - another benefit for a hunter.
