Why do cats like to look at people in the dark? Cats are very alert animals, they like to observe humans and other animals in the dark. This is because cats have an instinctive defense mechanism that can help them quickly identify threats and take appropriate action in emergencies.
If you have a close relationship with a cat and the cat trusts you more, then the cat should look at you openly. When you look back inadvertently, you will find that the cat is staring at you intently.
But if cats are not very familiar with the environment at home, or if strangers come to their homes, they will be scared and curious, so the best way is to hide in the dark and observe quietly.
If the cat observes you frequently, it proves that it is interested in you. After all, you are the largest animal in your home and can also provide food, entertainment and a sense of security. Secondly, cats can’t speak and can only communicate through eyes and body language, so cats will understand you by observing your every move.
In addition, the cat's vision is so good that they can see the little bugs more than ten meters away clearly. So if they want to monitor their master, they don’t have to run to a place very close to their master. They can see clearly when standing in the dark from afar.
