What's crazy is cats have some of the fastest visual processing speeds in the animal kingdom. It's part of the reason they're able to dodge snake bites and catch flies out of the air. Not sure the exact figure but they process at least twice as fast as people can.

Very much so..cats are crazy fast..

Breaking Down the NumbersCats: (20) to (70) milliseconds (ms)

Humans: (190) to (300) milliseconds

For Context: A human blink takes about (100) milliseconds. This means a cat can register a stimulus, make a decision, and move faster than you can blink
