An Enterprising Entrepreneur and his Beautiful dog do non-predatory Capitalism in China (unless those dog leashes were made with slave labor, of course  ;)).

See How the World Looks Through Your Cat’s Eyes

by Beth Buczynski

SNIPPET:

Quote
I love my cat. She’s a great companion, and I like watching her watch the world. Like most cat lovers, I’ve often wondered what she sees through those big brown eyes. Can she tell the difference between people just by looking? Does she know it’s me when I wave goodbye from the driveway?

A new project from artist Nickolay Lamm helps to answer some of these pressing cat-parent questions. Using information from top veterinarians and ophthalmologists, Lamm constructed images that contrast human and feline vision.

I was shocked to learn that although cat’s eyes are superior to ours in some ways, they’re not nearly as good in others.


While cats have a broader field of vision than we do, the resolution is inferior to ours  :(. What seems clear to us at a distance of 100 feet or more is totally blurry to cats. They see things more clearly at 20 feet or less. (So no, your kitty doesn’t see your face as a big blob when you’re cuddling on the couch!  ;D)

What cats lack in distance vision is made up for in other areas, however.    Cats can see six to eight times better in dim light than humans due to their eyes’ high number of rods and because of their elliptical pupil, large cornea and tapetum. Since cats are nocturnal animals, this is a great advantage for hunting and hiding from enemies.

Many picture comparisons at link:

Do Dogs See Everything in Black and White?

Dogs do not see everything in black and white; however, they do not have a full spectrum of color vision like humans. The ability to see different colors is a result of neuron cells in the eye that send signals to the brain after recognizing a color.

Human eyes contain three types of cells that detect color, known as cones, while dogs’ eyes only have two cones. This allows dogs to view shades of yellow and blue, but not any colors on the red to green spectrum. Since dogs don’t have the cones that detect red and green, their neurons don’t make any signal to the brain and the default is for the brain to perceive it as shades of gray.

More about animal vision :

•While the human eye is composed of one lens, the bee has thousands of lenses that allows it to spot flowers with nectar while flying.

•Snakes have sensory tools between their eyes and nose known as pit organs, which gives them the unique ability to see the infrared light from the heat of nearby prey.

•Cats’ daytime vision is estimated to be around six times blurrier than human vision.

AG - I absolutely loved this pic.  It reminded me of when one of our cats looks up at me like this...then I sneak off to the cupboard an get some treats for them...the "soft" ones, or "the good stuff".  LOL 


Except for memorial to Yellow, the pictures are recent and taken at the Kitten Rescue NO Kill shelter in Los Angeles. They have a live cam and I watch the kitties play, eat and grow. It helps with my grieving over Nino. 👍

There has been some drama as Binx (the black one) and Boris (the Russian Blue) got very sick. Einstein and Serenity were under the weather too for a few days. Bane is the strongest of the Group. Touché is still separated as she grows due to a herpes ulcer but she will soon join the others. These kittens were abandoned. Somebody put them in a box and left it in front of a pet store in Burbank that called Kitten Rescue for help.

I suspect they lost their mom soon after birth and may have missed the vital colostrum needed to fight infection. They were in bad shape. Binx and Boris had eye infections, they all had giardia. After nursing them to health as well as possible, they were put on view at 4 and a half weeks (Sep. 22, 2014).

A week later Serenity and Einstein came down with calici virus (there are hundreds of variations -but kittens do better than adult cats which die quickly from it). Then Binx and Boris became gravely ill. Binx was hospitalized and had to have entubation and pure oxygen for a while. A large amount of mucous had lodged in one lung and he was dying. A q-tip was used through a scope to clear the lung passage. He made it, thank God. He is now out of danger, home from the hospital and eating and growing stronger along with Boris.  Enjoy!
