While that may be the case case for house cats, I know that other cats are geared towards hunting nocturnally, like that little tiny African cat the smallest cat in the world that has one of the highest hunting success rates on the planet for a mammal.

But what else, I think a bunch of them they're not really nocturnal usually they take cat naps and wake up and prowl around and will hunt if they find something but obviously in the warm climates avoid the hottest temperatures.

I know I had a mountain lion follow me and show itself to me in the middle of the night.
