Want an interesting little tidbit?

I just listened to the sound file up in volume....and my CATS WENT SPASTIC! They had their ears back and were low-running away....and I am a musician and they NEVER run when I am practicing, no matter the volume!!

Test this out with your animals! Maybe THIS is what they are able to hear BEFORE an earthquake that WE can not!

It is interesting!

My 14 yr. old cat woke up, laid her ears back, eyes dilated and she listened to the whole thing.

My 5 year old cat didn't like it at all either. She was sitting on top of the desk next to the speakers. She started howling, ears back too and then started to stalk the speaker.

The dog heard it from the other room and he came in, sat down and simply listened.

Hmmm... the mp3 format clips frequencies, doesn't it? Plus, they say they slowed this down ten times...does that mean they shifted frequencies, or just time extension?

Rags took off looking at my computer suspiciously.
The cockatiel merely chirped quizzically at the funny humans.
Kearen cat is somewhere hiding, but she hides from thunder.

Had a fish jump out of the aquarium (gourami; since returned safely).

Thanks for sharing this experiment, Itzlzha. The sound woke my cats up.

They generally start their weird behavior about an hour before a quake. But they also act weird at other times. I don't always check to see if there was a quake so they might be reacting to the smaller ones, too.
