Ok, I've had ALOT of very different kinds of animals (cats, dogs, birds, monkeys, etc.). And it seems like every time there is a full moon, they act weird. Like, they start whining and get restless and acting...well, crazy. What's the deal?

The moon is what causes tides to rise and fall on earth. Since it's gravitational pull is powerful enough to do this, it also does the same thing within an organism's body. It happens on a much smaller scale, of course. When there is a full moon it changes blood flow very slightly. Which changes the chemical balance between body and brain, this explains the strange behavior of creatures during a full moon.

Sounds like confirmation bias to me.
