| The research done
by Kitty Show was important not only in verifying cats can and do see color,
but to what degree. This is especially important when viewing TV screens.
TV creates the image seen by lighting up 3 colors- red, blue and green.
In a cats case, red is seen as gray. So now we have gray, blue and green. This shifts the color balance, similar to humans viewing a TV with the tint adjusted to the green side. It would "camouflage" or "mask" colors involving shades of green, brown and yellow, making those objects hard for us to see. For Cats, the "masking" would be red, brown and gray. So.. to compensate for this, Kitty Show created the "Serpia Filter". This filter shifts the colors/hues of red and brown to purple and violet. These are some of the strongest colors cats can see. Now.. cats can see all the commotion with little or no masking. |

| Understanding how cats see
also suggested the subjects selected for Kitty Show movies. Cats hunt by motion. Certain types of motion causes certain reactions from cats. Backgrounds, scene changes and such are not what cats are most interested in. It's the motion of the prey. The easier cats can see the prey, along with the right kinds of motion, the more likely a cat will respond BACK <- -> NEXT |
