One day while I was on the telephone with a chatty girlfriend, I noticed my large grey and white domestic short hair behaving strangely. I was still in bed and the television and stereo was off. My apartment was quiet. My cat came running to the bedroom door, stopped turning around to face out, then ran quickly back out of the bedroom and came right back, turning out again in the doorway as I lay in bed listening to my friend. My cat did something he had never done before. He growled loudly. I told my friend that something wasn't right and asked her to hold on as I got out of bed to check. as I entered the living room, a man was trying to come through the window of my apartment, which was on the second floor. He had climbed a tree to get there. He saw me, pulled his legs from the window, swung onto a tree limb and dropped down, hurting himself as he did. He limped away quickly knew no one was supposed to come through the window and what he did saved me from god knows what.

The statement I wanted to make was that my cat knew no one was supposed to come through the window.

Wow!!!! Your cat deserves a medal. Thanks for sharing this uplifting sory. Why don't you submit your story to "Animal Miracles" or something like that?

It depends on your definition of "saving." Many years ago, I had a miscarriage (my first pregnancy). I plunged into a deep depression for weeks. I probably should have been on medication, but they didn't understand that sort of thing back then. Anyway, all I wanted to do was lay on the couch and cry all day. My cat, who was not normally a terribly affectionate or cuddly cat, sat on the armrest of the couch and never left me the whole time. I don't know when he ate or used the litter box. I remember sobbing on him and he just snuggled next to me. Did he save me? Yes, I believe he did.

My brother had a cat named Smokey who was a stray that he adopted. One night as my bro slept, he forgot he had something cooking on the stove top and it caught on fire. Smokey kept scratching my bro's head until he woke up, put the fire out and ventilated the apartment. There was heavy smoke damage and burn damage to the stove, but my brother lived thanks to Smokey. Unfortunately, when my brother moved, my younger brother who hates cats decided to lock him in a basement to die. Jerk.
I think cats and dogs are very perceptive to danger. Though they cannot speak our language, they try to let us know about things that are happening around us whether they be good or bad.

I hear that cats do that, ignore Mr Sunshine's answer, he is being rude in the cat section. I think it is amazing! My kitty is only 5 months, but maybe she will do the same some day.
