Pamela watches her cat Mr. Big swat his paw at the wall and calls out, "Crazy Big, what are you swatting at; nothing is there."
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Cats eyes have 6-8 times more rod cells, which are more sensitive to low light, than that of humans. Their elliptical eye shape, large tapetum and cornea help to gather light for better vision at night.
