Animals' eyes appear to glow in the dark due to a layer called the tapetum lucidum, a reflective layer behind the retina that helps animals see better in low light conditions.

Why are some animals colour-blind?

They have less cones in their eyes. Humans have cones and rods. The cones are for color and rods are for light. Cats have a ton of rods so that is why they can see in the dark well and humans can't. The more rods you have, the better you can see at night or in the dark. Animals have a lot more rods because that is more beneficial to them than seeing colors.
