The large ears, eyes, and many vibrissae (whiskers) of the cat adapt it for low-light predation. Cat senses are adaptations that allow cats to be highly efficient predators.

The superior part of the Müllerian ducts do not fuse and form the left and right fallopian tubes. Disruptions to this stage of development can result in didelphys or bicornuate uteri anomalies. [8] In both didelphys and bicornuate uteri, the non-fusion of the Müllerian ducts results in two distinct uterine cavities.
Normal human ears can discriminate between two frequencies that differ by as little as 0.2%. [14] If one ear has normal thresholds while the other has sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), diplacusis may be present, as much as 15–20% (for example 200 Hz one ear => 240 Hz in the other).
Cats will adjust their eyes during the day, allowing less light to filter in, while their pupils will expand at night to allow for more light, Purina reports. Feline eyes also have more "rods ...
Marsupials have the typical characteristics of mammals—e.g., mammary glands, three middle ear bones, (and ears that usually have tragi, [3] varying in hearing thresholds [4]) and true hair. [5] There are, however, striking differences as well as a number of anatomical features that separate them from eutherians .
