Cats need to have great senses to be such good

hunters. Cats have excellent hearing and very special
eyes. At night it may look like a cat’s eyes glow. They

actually have special reflectors in their eyes that catch
light. This makes their eyes light up and helps them

see very well in the dark.

Cats also have whiskers that help them sense
things they can’t see. Because cats love to sneak

around, they need a way to tell if it’s safe to go into
a certain hiding spot or hole and to feel small things

around them they might not have time to look at.
Whiskers can even feel tiny changes in the air that can

help cats climb and balance.
