Fortune Telling Cats: 7 Things Our Furry Friends Can Predict
13.05.2023 00:01
Domestic cats are not only cute and loyal pets, but also amazing creatures that have special abilities.
It is believed that cats can predict certain events that have not yet happened.
This is not due to magic or miracles, but to the fact that cats have sharper senses than humans and can notice some changes in the environment that are not available to humans.
Here are some things that domestic cats can predict:
Earthquakes and tremors
Minutes or even hours before an earthquake or tremor, some animals have been observed to exhibit stress and anxiety-related behavior and begin to leave their homes or nests for higher or more distant locations. These animals include birds, dogs, and cats. But what exactly do cats feel before an earthquake?
There are several theories. One of them says that cats are able to perceive static changes that occur immediately before an earthquake.
Another theory is that cats sense the small vibrations that occur in the ground before a large-magnitude shock through the pads of their paws.
Natural disasters
As with earthquakes, people have noticed that cats can sense the events that occur before certain natural disasters, thanks to their keen senses. Cats can notice that a volcanic eruption, cyclone, tsunami, or even a hurricane is approaching.
The reason is that before all these natural "disasters" there are changes in atmospheric pressure, temperature, wind direction and earth movements.
Some diseases
Rather than predicting them, several studies have shown that cats are able to detect the presence of certain diseases in humans, as well as in their own kind.
There are many testimonies of people who discovered they had cancer after their furry friend persistently landed on a certain area of their body.
There are also cases where cats have helped their owners control their blood sugar levels or warned them of approaching epileptic seizures. Cats can probably sense odor or changes in a person's bioelectric field.
Moods
Cats are very good at understanding the moods of their owners and other people. They can sense when you are sad, angry, happy or worried.
Cats can react to your mood in many ways: comforting you, ignoring you, supporting you, or teasing you. Cats read your mood by your tone of voice, your gestures, your scent, and your gaze.
Visits
Many cats do not like strangers in their home and try to avoid them. However, sometimes cats can predict that a guest is coming to visit you soon. How do they do this? There are several possible explanations.
One of them is that cats notice changes in your behavior before the visit: you start cleaning, getting ready, making phone calls, etc. Another explanation is that cats hear noises outside the door or smells from the entrance.
Death
This is the most mysterious and controversial phenomenon associated with cats. There are many stories about cats predicting the death of their owners or other people. For example, there is a famous case of a cat named Oscar, who lived in a nursing home and visited patients a few hours before their death.
How can cats know about death? Some scientists believe that cats can detect the smell of chemicals that are released from the human body before death. Others believe that cats sense energetic changes or a spiritual presence.
Here are some things that domestic cats can predict. However, this does not mean that all cats are equally sensitive to these phenomena or that they are always right in their premonitions.
Cats are unique and individual creatures that have their own character and abilities. But one thing is for sure: cats are amazing pets that can enrich our lives and give us a lot of joy and love.
