I probabily think no but i dont have the exact answer. Indirectly i think sixth sense may play a role in this cos they dont have the capacity to think.

I am sure they dream and they do have the ability to think. Dogs and other animals being able to do things, like get out of fenced yards, is because they think. They think and figure out how to get on the other side out of the fence, whether it is climbing digging, moving things, whatever. They use their brains to figure out the best way to make what they want to accomplish possible. I have also seen animals dream. Of course I didn't see their dream, but many dogs and cats have twitches, movements and make vocal sounds when they dream. I have even seen dogs and cats that look like they are trying to run when they are sleeping.

hi greensignal...i think they do. we had a cat that seemed to "talk" in her sleep. she'd be sleeping and make some vocal "mumbling" for a cat. so we thot she must be having a dream.
