Can cats see in the dark?

Yes; Cats can see in the dark and have better night vision than humans

Cats are crepuscular animals, meaning they are active during sunrise and sunset, which are the peak times of their activity. How do cats see in the dark?

A cat's retina contains a special layer called tapetum lucidum

This layer consists of reflective cells that allow light to bounce off the back of the eye, which increases the chance of the eye absorbing light. This layer is the reason why cats' eyes glow in the dark!It allows the retina to process six times more light than humans, giving them excellent night vision.

Cats can see better at night than humans, dogs and many other animals.

The irony is that cats don't see well in the daytime because their eyes are so reflective when light enters the eye they bounce back and forth until they land on the receptor to pick up the signal leading to less accurate daytime vision.

Through the use of the senses of smell, hearing, whiskers and paws Sensing vibrations or changes in airflow helps cats determine the size, shape and speed of moving objects nearby, which also helps cats in the dark.
