I'v had several cats myself over about a 25 year period - no cat now though. Cats are very sensitive animals, indeed.
While I'll admit there may be some extremely small chance that cats see ghosts, there are perhaps hundreds of other things one should consider first to explain odd cat behavoir. In my consideration of the claim of "ghost seeing cats," I'd start with the human brain followed by cat physiology then the feline brain.

Cat senses are attuned for hunting. Cats have highly advanced hearing, eyesight, taste, and touch receptors, making the cat extremely sensitive among mammals. Cats' night vision is superior to humans although their vision in daylight is inferior. Humans and cats have a similar range of hearing on the low end of the scale, but cats can hear much higher-pitched sounds, up to 64 kHz, which is 1.6 octaves above the range of a human, and even one octave above the range of a dog.[15] A domestic cat's sense of smell is about fourteen times as strong as a human's

Perhaps ghosts hunters should employ small clowders of cats?
Best,
