Cats like darkness. Cats’ own habit is to stay up and out at night, and cats’ eyes can see clearly in the dark.

Lighting can make cats feel uncomfortable. Breeders should try not to expose cats to strong light.

Although cats like darkness, cats like to bask in the sun. Sunshine will make cats feel comfortable and warm.

The reason why cats like the dark

Cats have been domesticated by humans for more than 3,500 years. After long-term observation, people have found that they do prefer to go out at night. Cats like to be active at night due to their hunting nature. Their prey prefers to appear at relatively cool nights. In order to survive, cats will naturally choose to sleep during the day and hunt at night.

There is another important reason, that is the special structure of their eyes. Cats' eyes are very sensitive to light, and their pupils will adjust according to the amount and intensity of light. When the light is strong during the day, cats will feel very dazzling. In order to avoid damaging their eyes, they often sleep during the day.

However, for cats kept at home, the influence of light is not an important factor. The light in the home can change at any time, which will also change the cat's behavior pattern to a certain extent.
