Hi Canie,
I find that sad. Of course, not all animals are seismically sensitive. My past critters, however, certainly have been. One Manx-Siamese indoor only cat move outdoors on Aug. 8, 1989 the day of the foreshock to the World Series Quake. She literally live in the bushes for 2 mo. till Oct. 17. Also, my yellow Lab paced for one week prior to the 7.1 jolt.
Both my animals--K.C. and Simon are good for Tahoe-related quakes. Well, my new kitten is black. And there are some people who believe black cats are more sensitive. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Callie

P.S. Brian is prob getting ready to burn me at the stake, huh?
