When we are not well. I am sure of it. I have been in bed all day and all last night unable to walk or move much and Cookie has hardly left my side all day. Cookie has now taken a break and Felix is lying down beside me looking after me. Good cats.

She really is. She had been abused before we got her so I think she loves and trusts us. She is a great cat.

@amandajay I believe. I know a dog that sings when its owner sings.

I think that this is very true. I wasn't really sure whether cats empathised with us or not but now I am sure that they do. I think that they empathise fully and they display the final part of empathy by acting on it.

Yes they do @saulgoodman . I think it is the scent our bodies give off that is their clue.

Cats and dogs know. Doodles knows my husband is not well and keeps a close eye on him. Get well soon.

Indeed they are. Its very comforting as well having them so close to me whilst I am not exactly 100 percent.

Hello there. I think that you are right. I think that animals we form relationships do know when something is wrong with us just like we know when they Are not well. Our cats today have been wonderful. I couldn't have asked for more understanding conpanions .
