Can Cats See Color?

2. Are cats color blind?

Many people think cats can only see the world in black and white and shades of gray, but that’s not entirely true. Cats can see colors, just not all of them. They are colorblind the way some humans are. Ever see a faded color photograph that has been bleached by the sun, where most of the bright colors and rich tones are washed out? That gives you a rough idea of how cats see the world through their eyes. They can see shades of green and blue, but pinks and reds might also look like varying shades of green, and purples might look bluish.
