How fast are cat's reactions 🐈 😻 🐈‍⬛️

Cats are lightning fast when it comes to reactions much faster than humans.

Here are some cool facts about their reaction speed:

🧠 Reaction time: Cats can react in about 20–70 milliseconds. Humans, by comparison, usually react in 150–250 milliseconds meaning a cat is about 3–10 times faster!

🐁 Hunting advantage: This speed lets them pounce on quick prey like mice or insects almost instantly.

🐾 Reflexes: Their powerful back legs and flexible spine help them twist mid-air (the "righting reflex") and land on their feet from surprising heights.

👀 Vision boost: Cats’ eyes detect motion far better than ours — even tiny movements in dim light — so they can combine super-fast reflexes with sharp motion detection.

That’s why when you drop something or try to play with a feather toy, your cat reacts before you even finish moving your hand. ⚡🐈
