Hmmm, where do I start. It's not an organ that is responsible for your pets being more aware of earthquakes.
To explain the their uncanny ability I suggest that you set up a spy cam. Once you find out exactally what your pet is doing while your at work you will understand. Did you really think that they are just laying around and sleeping until you got home? This is why a dog will greet you at the door (I wasn't doing nothing, it was the cat) and a cat will lay down in the same spot you last saw them (I haven't moved all day, it was the dog).
No, they are using your computer and watching TV. That kind of explains all of the Farm Animal porn sites in your favorite places doesn't it. It also explains why when you use the the flashback feature on the remote it goes to the Weather Channel. So now you will know which pet to blame the next time you come home and Cat Stevens is playing on your ITunes .

Anyway back to the question...I'm gonna be serious now.

I would say it is their ears. It is a well know fact that animals hear different frequencies than we do. And I have a very cryptic view when it comes to scientific studies...they basically prove what it takes to keep the grant money flowing (less than 30 years ago we where headed for an Ice Age). But, I have noticed that when I play sounds that are supposedly lower in range than a dog is supposed to be able to hear...they get very uncomfortable and antsy.

Maybe the scientist don't have it down yet...I think the range of hearing is a lot wider than they think...it just hasn't occured to them to test the lower frequencies when an animal is actually free to run away.

(Okay I admit I edited this part) I recently read a report that a Goldfish has a memory of about two seconds. How do they know this? And why did they spend money to find out? And, do you actually believe it? It seems to me that a Goldfish remembers when you sprinkle food in every day it is supposed to eat (that is a bit more than two seconds).

it is thought that animails such as dogs have the ability to sense very slight changes in smell sound taste and perhaps the air pressure as well as the electrical fields around them .
dogs are used now to alert people who have seziures that they have one coming on . they can do this up to several minutes ahead of time allowing the person to lay down or sit down be safer anyway . no one really knows what the dog senses as many many tests have been done with all manner of very high tech devices and nothing as yet has been able to do what the dogs can do .
snakes feel the vibration of sound in the ground and are drawn to vibrations when they are wanting to eat and flee when they want to not be eaten .
birds signal animails to all sorts of changes that are happening . people tend to ignore nature now and so we dont see the birds all disapear or notice no animails are around .
some tribes on the african countinent that have had very little mixing with modern man have the ability to hear much better then we do . they use there hearing to hunt and to protect themselfs for danger just as the animials do .
i suspect a combination of factors are involved in the animails knowing when to flee from a tidal wave or to react to earthquakes before any man made machine has begun to detect anything. the electormagnetic field is one thing i think they are more in tune with then people are . this is just specualation on my part but that is what i think they are using more then anything to dectect on coming seziures earthquakes storms danger of many kinds.

I don't believe that there is a certain organ...Animals have an instinct and can sense things that may happen. It's like people have fears of heights and the dark. So it's basically a natural instinct from nature.

its quiet simple. when an earth quake happen the tictonic plates move ect.., the sound waves travel in solid matter faster than the earth is moving and animals (dogs espicially) can hear these waves but not humans.

some humans do ... they are called earth sensitives.
