Why was she so nervous?

i wonder if it's because even tho a storm has passed, there is still the threat of lighting sometimes. and you know how your hair stands on end when lightning strikes close? i wonder if cats can sense this electrical sensation more than us. they say that cats can actually HEAR electricity go from a light switch when you flip it, flow to the light before it comes on. their hearing is so acute and they also have elevated senses. you'd think their whiskers would be pulling in all kinds of "data" in a storm.

She certainly must have sensed something. Amazing how they do that.

Cats Do Have Senses And Perceptions That Are Beyond Ours And Maybe Something Just Struck Gis As Being Ominous, Something That She Was Trying To Communicate To You.

That is exactly how I felt watching her Gary! I kept waiting for a tornado to hit or lightening to get us but NOTHING happened!

That is about the most logical thing thought of yet... she sensed something that none of the rest of us sensed or felt. The other girls were watching her, as puzzeled as I was.

With the power off, there were probably familiar sounds absent - small motors or fluorescent elements humming, or the buzz of a transformer in dimmer switch - that humans can't easily hear, but that she knew had stopped. "Seems pretty quiet, Batman." "Yes, Robin, too quiet..."

Love, Columbine

That makes sense too... It was terriably quiet in here but the power has been off before and she never acted like that.

Then again, a few Angels might have dropped by, and she was sensing Pets who she didnt know yet. But once they know the Pet Angels,

they are a lot more relaxed!!

That is what I was going to say, maybe she felt the static.
