They can see in the dark.
Cats also have a mirror like membrane on the back of their eyes called a Tapetum.
It reflects the light passing through the rods... back through the rods a second time, this time in the opposite direction. The combination of elliptical pupils and the Tapetum permit cats to see extremely well in near darkness.
The picture on the left is how a human would see in near darkness and on the right, how a cat would see. In low light, like night, color and hue are not perceived, only black, white and shades of gray.
Cats have both rods and cones in the retina. Rods are the receptors that the eye uses for night time viewing and sudden movement. Cones are used during the daytime and process color information. Cats have more rods than cones, as compared with humans, making cat night and motion vision superior to humans.

Dogs have a lot more rods then humans.
Do cats see in black and white or color?
Cats, like dogs, can see some colours: They can tell the difference between red, blue and yellow, and between red and green, although these are less distinguishable. Cats are able to distinguish between blues and violets better than between colours near the red end of the spectrum.Colour is of little importance to cats. They hunt by the motion of their prey, not by its colour.Another AnswerCats actually see in color - the colors they can see are between the yellow and purple spectrum and are not as vibrant as the colors we see. To them the object will look similar as we see it in color, but faded.
