Nocturnal animals have adapted in various ways to help them see better in the dark. Some species such as owls have evolved bigger eyes and wider pupils. This enables more light to enter the eye. Other animals have eyes composed nearly completely of rods, a type of vision cells. Although they lack color perception, the high number of rods allow their eyes to activate with only a fraction of the light needed for daytime animals. Another adaptation are reflective lenses behind the retina. These cells collect are refocus available light back through the retinas allowing the rods a second chance to use the scarce light. These lenses are also what cause some animals' eyes to "glow" when hit with light at night.
In general, rodents are nocturnal pets. Such pets include rats, mice, and hamsters. Cats can also be nocturnal and it can seem as if puppies are nocturnal (though dogs are not inherently nocturnal animals).

No, most cats are crepuscular by nature - which is to say are most active during dawn and dusk, which goes toward explaining the 'crazies' domestic cats experience during those times. The short answer is that cats are not nocturnal.
Tarsiers are mainly threatened by snakes, birds of prey, and large predators like cats and civets. Their small size and nocturnal habits make them vulnerable to these predators.

Regular domestic cats are normally nocturnal, so the answer is "both or neither".
Most big cats are nocturnal, but many are crepuscular, hunting around dusk or dawn (twilight). Domestic housecats are prominent crepuscular hunters.
Owls, cats and Fennec Foxes.
In the wild, like most cats they have nocturnal habits. They do however hunt in the day as well and are therefore diurnal or both.
Mostly hunt because cats are mainly nocturnal hunters and sleep during the day.
Cats in the wild are nocturnal hunters and there for require night vision so they can see. Cats have been bred to become general house hold pets from wild cats and this is why cats have night vision.
