Tweed > See > http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/south_yorkshire/5076338.stm > > "Hero cat predicts epileptic fits" As an epileptic owned by a cat, I suspect most cats have this ability. Unlike the dogs who can smell cancer, the reason cats can identify this problem is because the increased electrical activity in the brain of an epileptic produces electromagnetic fields that interfere with the cat's communication to the Mother-ship ;-) SignatureMatSav > As an epileptic owned by a cat, I suspect most cats have this ability. > Unlike the dogs who can smell cancer, the reason cats can identify this > problem is because the increased electrical activity in the brain of an > epileptic produces electromagnetic fields that interfere with the cat's > communication to the Mother-ship ;-) And he probably stares as if to say, "Please turn off all your electronic devices, as they are interfering with our communications." :) One thing I was wondering - if the guy can't go out because he doesn't get any warning that a seizure is coming, how does the cat help with that? Does he take the cat out with him? I still think it's amazing. As Adrian said, just more evidence of the superior species! Joyce What a great story, thanks!

Schiz, the alpha cat, will alert an adult and more or less drag them to the child's closed bedroom door when needed. >> See >> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > alpha cat, will alert an adult and more or less drag them to the child's > closed bedroom door when needed. How are you doing Howard. Hope you are settling in from your move and can get your cats with you soon as well. I know I'd go nuts if I had to be separated from mine. Jo Hi Howard, good to see you back, I missed you. How is the move going?
