Paranormal Activity and Our Pets

Dogs and Cats are more highly sensitized to electromagnetic activity than most humans. This tends to make them natural psychics. Any anomalous activity would normally be picked up by an animal.

Just as mentioned above, my Dog acts weird when there is a storm approaching. Most animals do. I have watched my dog walk up to the door, tail wagging, to greet...absolutely no one I could see. My Papi (Yes, his name is Papi) will sit and turn his head, as his eyes follow something move across the room. I don't see it, but he does.

My Daughter, who swears that she has seen shadows move quickly into the kitchen on many occasions, seems to share the anxiety of my Dog, who will not even eat in the kitchen if he is by himself. He just does NOT like it in there.

Although I have always felt a comforting, almost protective force in this house, I have encountered the Paranormal. Fortunately, although my Dog and Daughter fear the Kitchen, we have had no harmful, and only minor frightening experiences. Most are comforting and protective, and quite friendly.

I, with my cat and dog curled up for warmth, sat on a heater vent wrapped in a blanket. I was in the living room with a perfect view of the entryway. From here I heard some footsteps upstairs. The cat's and dog's ears both perked up at the sound of the footsteps as they seemed to go down the hall toward the top of the spiraling staircase in the entryway. Both animals watched some invisible presence slowly walk down the stairs and through the living room then into the dining room. I, quite apprehensively, looked between both my cat's and my dog's ears as their heads and eyes seemed to follow someone walking though my house. Both animals' heads moved in tandem and the acted very much aware of the presence. Yet I could sense nothing aside from the sound of steps and the reaction of the animals. I was somewhat disappointed.

There seem to be conflicting theories on how, exactly, dogs and cats react to Paranormal Activity. I've read many Articles, and forum posts that say if an animal isn't growling or spitting, then there is no Paranormal activity. I could not disagree more. I believe whatever "type" of entity it is, will determine what reaction it gets from the animal.

In July of 2007, The New England Journal of Medicine had an article about a cat, named Oscar, who was adopted by the staff of a nursing home. Oscar, it seems can predict death. As of the date of the Article, Oscar had 25 correct predictions. Oscar would take up post at a patients bed, purring and laying beside them, and would stay there until shortly after death. The Staff began to rely on Oscar's prediction as to when to tell the families that their loved one's time was near. The Medical Journal attributes the ability to Animal senses. They say that perhaps the patients organs shutting down emit a scent that Oscar is very attune to. Of course, maybe, Oscar just knows something we don't!

Animal's senses are so much more keen than a humans senses. I have witnessed it myself, in my Dog and in my Cat. They often seem to sense things that I do not. I know there are times when it is because their hearing is so much better, and it's simply a matter of they hear something make a noise that has nothing to do with the Paranormal.

There are also the times, when there are no other explanations, just as there are with people. If you believe in the Paranormal, you will have to agree that our Pets are much more attuned to Paranormal activity.
