Perhaps the greatest point of this article could be, to illustrate the need for us as human beings, to begin to develop our abilities to sense the atmospheres generated by our fellow human beings. Everyone has a 'field' that surrounds them. The body generates it, based on many factors; our mood, our general health, our energy levels, our likes and dislikes of the situation we are in or the people we are with. Whether or not we like this, we project what we are thinking, far beyond what we imagine our personal space to be. All of us can sense these things if we want to. It just takes practice and intent. That is what I think Oscar is showing us.

Dr. Mercola summed it up in one of his recent articles about how if your are not diseased your body doesn't smell.

Cats have a keen sense of smell and can probably detect changes in body chemistry this way. Impending death has got to cause a definite chemical change.

I love cats, and dogs! Had them all my life. Hey, all of you should go on to AZCENTRAL.com and read about the Police Officer in Chandler, Arizona who left is Police Dog in the scorching hot car police car for 12 hours - then found him dead in the back seat. He said "he just forgot". Everyone should post a comment on this - as this us unacceptable!!

I have multiple chemical sensitivities and my Rottweiler protects me from perfumed people by growling at them to keep them away fom me. Normally she loves everyone but she changes when even a friend she likes tries gettng to close with a strong chemical smell on them.

MAYBE THEY WERE ALLERGIC TO CAT DANDER. 4 HOURS IS PLENTY OF TIME FOR A PERSON THAT`S ALLERGIC TO DEVELOPE SERIOUS BREATHING PROBLEMS. THESE WERE OLDER PEOPLE AND PROBABLY NOT IN THE BEST HEALTH. THEY WOULDN`T BE ABLE TO SURVIVE A SEVER BOUGHT OF SWELLING AND CONGESTION THAT ACCOMPANIES CAT ALLERGIES. HAS THIS SCENARIO BEEN INVESTIGATED? HE MIGHT BE A CONTRIBUTOR MORE THAN A PREDICTOR.

My cat Milady saved my life when I was in college. Every night I would read for an hour or so in bed, and she would sleep beside my pillow. I had an old and very heavy mirror that I decided to hang (very well anchored, by the way) on the wall above my bed. That night while I was reading, my head resting against the wall just a few inches below the mirror, Milady jumped up and put her paws on the wall just below the mirror and started meowing and looking at me, then at the mirror. I sat up straight and pushed her off my pillow, and in that instant that mirror fell straight down. The wall anchors had held, but the cable on the back of the mirror had broken. I guess it was just too old. If she hadn't warned me, and if I hadn't sat upright to get her off my pillow, I would have at the very least had a concussion, maybe worse. It would probably have scalped me and knocked me out.

I don't know if she heard the metal cable unravelling, or what, but God used that cat to keep me from getting hurt that night.

I have a couple of health problems and it never fails that when I'm feeling pretty sick my cat will not only jump on my bed and stay there, but she acts extreemly vigilint and sits straight up while basically staring at me the whole time like a concerend relative.. very loving. What is weird about this though is that she will look at me and then very intensely look above me and then back down at me as if she senses something is there with us. It's very interesting because this only happens when I feel pretty darn sick. She is an awesome kittty!!!!

I also have a Jack Russell who jumped on my chest when I was lying down. It hurt so bad I went to the doctor only to find I had a suspicious cyst there. Turned out OK though! I always thought it was just an accident that he landed there - maybe not?

My cat was amazing - she seemed to "speak" to me and had amazing intuition about my feelings and moods!

Don't tell the dog that I like cats better!!!

Me personally could not live with out my fuzzy kid. She is a yellow-lab husky mix. She only knows about 60 tricks or commands what ever ya want to call them. She hates when her dad cusses, i cant even say bad words joking around when friends come over. I have lots of ups and downs and my little girl knows when i am really really down.

There is one trick that she only does on request or when i am really down in the dumps. She will come over and nudge me with her nose to make sure she gets my attention then she will go to a area where she can chase her tail. She does that a little bit and stops and wags her tail. Then chases her tail some more. She knows this makes me laugh.

It scares me though that she is 9 years old. My little girl and i are very very close. I think you build a really special bond with your pet when you actually spend time teaching them things. I have taught my kid everything she knows, well except the sitting pretty trick she learned that from another dog.

I know i can alway count on my little girl being there for me no matter what. I know if something should happen to me she would probrably pass on herself unless her grandma took her in. She loves her grandma a lot. When my grandma got ill last year and i went with my mom to go to see my grandma we were supposed to be only gone for 3 days. So i gave the people that was going to take care of my little girl food for like 4 days. Well we were gone for a week and my little girl only ate like a days worth of food.

To all pet owners please give your pet good food. Look at the ingrediants. If corn is in the top 5 DO NOT BUY. I dont know about you all but when i eat corn it pretty much comes out the same way it went in. Dogs cant digest corn. Plus your dog will eat 3 times as much and leave 3 times the amount of land mines in your yard. They get less nutrients so will not be as healthy. Me personally i get Nutros or Nutro Max. Please help your pet's healh.

I seem to remember seeing a special on the Animal Planet a few years ago about keen-sensed animals. It talked about dogs the most, there was one dog on there that had saved his owners life because he predicted that she was going to have a heart attack, and there was another guy who's dog had a special rope attached to a 911 emergency call so whenever his owner was about to have a seizure he pulled the rope. I believe some of animals' senses are innate abilities that they are able to completely tap into because they have never had any reason to not be tuned in. Humans are capable of similar abilities, most of us are not in tune though. But there is definately some concrete, scientific reasons that animals are such good detectors. In the case of the heart attack, it turns out the reason the dog could detect her heart attack is because of their wonderful hearing, apparently dogs can hear your heart beat up to 35 feet away, her dog could hear the abnormal heart beats. Incredible isn't it? I think the concept was similar with the seizure detecting dog, he could sense whatever change was happening to his dad before his dad felt the changes. So give credit where its due, I would guess it's probably a huge combination of both amazing clairvoyance and of amazing senses, (I guess you could call it being in tune with all 6 senses).

I worked as a hospice nurse for a few years and I saw similar behavior with my patient's pets, dogs more than cats. They seemed to know, even before I did my assessment that the patient was about to die. They would crawl in the bed with the patient and absolutely would not leave. Always the pets were right, even when my assessment seemed unchanged from the previous day. Patients and family members alike were comforted by the love from these pets. My dogs always know when I'm sick or having a bad day and stick closer to me.

This story makes me think of what a friend of mine shared with me about his experiences with swimming with dolphins over a number of years. .... In one such experience a woman who was swimming with the dolphins was rammed in the rib cage by one of the dolphins. This caused her to have a slightly fractured rib where she was hit,... which caused her to go to the hospital,.. where they discovered a tumor growing right underneath the fracture that the woman had not had any awareness of. ......... Looked like the dolphin may have saved her life.
