Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / January 2005Is my cat psychic?
Our cat Stinky always seems to sense when we are about to go out, no matter how discreet we try to be. She goes from looking very content, to very sad. Can she tell that we will be leaving her, if only for a short time.Our vet has checked her over, and she is fine. She always goes to the same spot on our bed, near a window, to wait for us. Any thoughts on this will be appreciated. Cats always know when you leave. I don't think it has anything to do with psychic ability.  SignatureCat Galaxy: All Cats!

That one is under the bed. <sigh> BarB > Our cat Stinky always seems to sense when we are about to go out, no > matter how discreet we try to be. She goes from looking very content, > to very sad.

Then repeat "we will be back" If he knew I was leaving for the day, Tiger would attack my feet and spit. I guess he has given up now because he has stopped doing it. But I do believe that cats are psychic. ---MIKE--- >If he knew I was leaving for the day, Tiger would attack my feet and >spit. I guess he has given up now because he has stopped doing it.

Perhaps you always brush your teeth just before leaving or some other similar ritual. -mhd I used to play a game with one of my (now passed over) cats, ODIE, whenever I had to go out for a while. I took cat biscuits and held them in my fist. ODIE would then head-butt my fist to try and knock the biscuits out and then after a few butts she'd get the biscuits to 'fall' out of my hand and she'd wolf them down. She'd start gentle and then butt my lightly closed fist harder to get at the biscuits rattling in there. I did this from when she was a young kitten and it got that if I just gave her the biscuits she was not happy - I had to play the biscuit-in-fist game before I went out. She'd run to the door before I left for this and it became a regular ritual for us both. The idea was to make my going out a not so bad experience for her as there was some fun and gain for ODIE whenever I went out. Eventually I did the same thing whenever I came back and she got to love the being fussed over and given the treats at the same time. I really miss that cat as none of my others have ever played this game with me. Iain.H > Our cat Stinky always seems to sense when we are about to go out, no >matter how discreet we try to be.
