What do cats see? Artist Nickolay Lamm consulted three experts to hypothesize how cats view the world compared to humans. The biggest difference between human vision and cat vision is in the retina, a layer of tissue at the back of the eye that contains cells called photoreceptors. The photoreceptors convert light rays into electrical signals, which are processed by nerve cells, sent to the brain, and translated into the images we see.

A Norfolk woman is pleading for the return of her one-year-old service cat, 'Millie'. Brea Denton says she brought Millie to 'HK on the Bay' in the Chic's Beach area Friday and the cat escaped when another person at the restaurant was holding her. "She alerts when I have a seizure.

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange’s cat was spotted wearing a shirt collar and a candy-striped tie at the Ecuadorian embassy. Clad in the bizarre collar, the pet cat was photographed peering from a window at the embassy shortly after Swedish authorities arrived to quiz Mr Assange.

‘Tombili’, a rotund cat beloved by Istanbul’s Ziverbey neighbourhood, has been commemorated by the city authorities after local demand for a tribute to his memory. Tombili - a Turkish word often used for chubby pets - was known by residents of Ziverbey, part of the district of Kadıköy, for his nonchalant demeanour towards people who wanted to play with him. The cat became world famous earlier this year after a photo of him reclining in one of his favourite spots on the pavement was shared thousands of times on social media.

After a big team effort, animal rescue experts and villagers saved a leopard from drowning in a large open well in India. The rescue took place Sunday in Pimpalgaon Siddhanath village, in the Junnar division of Maharashtra, in west-central India (the state is best known for the city Mumbai). That morning, a resident heard the distressed cries of an animal bellowing from the bottom of a 60-foot (18-meters) well. The farmer contacted officials at the country's forest department, who in turn reached out to the nearby Manikdoh Leopard Rescue Centre, which is run by the nonprofit animal advocacy organization Wildlife SOS.
