My cat was spooked at something in my room.

[Neoma]

I don't know what it is, so now I'm spooked at what ever is in my room.

Great.

1. I would be to

animals are very perceptive....
does your house have a history???

may be a guardian angel though... Not everything is bad :-)


lost

2. Or more likely, an unnoticable draft creating very low frequency sound that the cat is able to hear.

10. Cats don't get spooked by drafts. Hell, they'd be spooked

all the time!

[ghostsofgiants]

11. Many consider infrasound to be a reason that animals flee the areas of some natural disasters

Not the sole reason, but it's reasonable to assume that a low frequency sound in a house caused by a draft or whatever could spook an animal as well.

[amitten]

16. True. But cats are strange in that their eyes follow invisible

objects all around the room sometimes.

Not like hearing...like actually seeing.

[spinbaby]

3. Just invisible insects

Or ghosts.

[kath]

4. Or the cat was just receiving a message from the mother ship.

Cats do weird shit like that...

[libodem]

5. ghost

[Skip Intro]

6. They are intune with an alternate reality, or a part of reality beyond our awareness

one of the cool things I like about cats...

7. i had a dog that got spooked by an invisible something

he loved to bark at stuff outside, but one night he was barking at something behind me and of course when i turned around, there was nothing there.

probably ghosts.

8. OH MY GOD IT'S RIGHT BEHIND YOU!!!

[Skittles]

9. oh that really freaks me out too

they get wild-eyed and keep darting glances at certain areas of the room, like they are actually SEEING something we cannot see :o

13. I lived in a haunted house and our cats always gave us a warning when

something would start to happen.

[Neshanic]

15. Me too. Our cat would just watch and follow as if something invisible was walking through the room.

I really think cats can see "things". The Egyptians maybe knew something about them we don't.

[texanwitch]

18. The cats would take off and hide.

I believe that cats and dogs see things we can't.

The cats would not go into the haunted bathroom upstair, couldn't make them.

[MissMarple]

12. Welcome to my world.

:) Do a perimeter check. If it is a ghost...:shrug: Only worry if the cat totally freaks out. ;)

[Robeson]

14. Respect your cat. It knows......

[Neoma]

17. Yes I know.

I killed a huge spider.

Great.

[LostinVA]

19. I hate it when they do that

And, they always do it at night AND when you're alone.

I swear they do it on purpose, just to torment us!

[NuttyFluffers]

20. probably just a dimensional shambler, nothing to really worry about

everything's perfectly all right, you can rest easy, it will all be over soon... *ahem* you don't mind if i retire early, now, do you? :hide:
