Gazing Into a Cat’s Eyes
There is nothing so mesmerising and beautiful than a cat’s eyes. You can simply get lost in their vivid pools of green, amber and blue and that hypnotising gaze that fixes you so intently. Even those purporting to dislike cats will struggle to deny how stunning and transfixing a cat’s eyes can be.
You often hear the saying if the eyes are like windows to the soul and this can be said to be true of cat’s eyes. You can tell a lot about a cat’s health and mood by studying the eyes. The pupils should be same size as in humans. If you see a difference in pupil size this is a good indicator that something health wise is amiss – take your cat to the vets immediately. Illnesses that can be indicated are tumours, inflammation or trauma to the central nervous system.
Cats also have a third eyelid called the nictating membrane. If a cat is ill this membrane will be come visible. It’s there to protect the cat’s eyes from damage or dryness. Again if the third persist to be visible and there are other symptoms take your cat to the vets.
When a cat is angry his pupils will narrow whereas when he is excited or frightened the will grow large and wide.
