The third eyelid in the cat (and dog) is found in the lower corner of the eye on the side near the nose. It can be visualized on occasion as it may partially elevate and partially cover the eye. In birds, the third eyelid is very functional and sweeps across the entire eye. It too is located in the same spot as the cat and dog. Even humans have a third eyelid, however, it is vestigial (a small non-functional remnant).
A cat's third eyelid becomes more visible when they are sleepy because their eye muscles relax, allowing the third eyelid to move across the eye and become more noticeable.

No, no fish can blink because they have no eyelids. We blink to regain moisture in our eyes and wash away dirt, but they are surrounded by moisture and water, so there is no need to blink. However, the are a few that have a nictitating membrane (also called the third eyelid) that they "blink". This "third eyelid" is used to protect the eyes.
