While humans have circular pupils, why do cats have vertical pupils as shown in the picture?
Correct answer: Allows for a huge change in constricted and dilated stage

cats really are amazing. I've always had a cat around and I still learn things from them.

Dogs have owners, cats have servants.

Player #9442102, I agree! I've had cats all my adult life.
But I seriously question why 4 people downvoted this comment. Why would anyone look at an innocuous comment like tis and dislike it? Geez, some people.

There's no such thing as "most unique!" Unique means "the only one". I sometimes hear people say "Very unique" too. Nothing can be that either. It's either the only one and therefore unique, or it's not
Player #Meg
unique has no degrees of uniqueness.

Arohanui, Right? I think goat eyes are both creepy and beautiful. They are really sweet animals.

Cats also have 2 eye lids for each eye.

Player Bengal Mama
Arohanui, A vet once told me it was to widen their field of vision
MFG
