When we choose colors for our Furpples products, we think about more than style, we think about how your pets see the world. Did you know that cats and dogs perceive colors differently from humans? That’s why so many of our products are yellow.
🐾 How Cats & Dogs See Color
Humans have three types of cone cells in our eyes, letting us see a wide range of colors. Cats and dogs, however, are dichromatic, they have only two types of cones.
- Dogs: Primarily see blue and yellow. Colors like red and green appear muted or grayish.
- Cats: Also see blues and yellows more clearly than reds.
In short: yellow stands out to your pets, making it easier for them to notice and engage with toys, bowls, collars, and more.
