Abstract
Comparison of optic tract recordings in Siamese and ordinary cats reveals that Siamese cats have a significantly lower percentage of Y-cells than of X-cells. In addition, Siamese cats show depressed responses to a contrast-reversal stimulus, a result that supports the lower spatial contrast sensitivity demonstrated behaviorally by these animals. Both physiological findings suggest neurophysiological anomalies in the Siamese retina.
