Do cats see ghosts?
Shell Beau's ghost story made me think of this.

Every once in a while my cats start looking around the room like they see something. It can be creepy sometimes.

Anybody else have this?

3. The cat just sees a good place to sit
In fact, the one you're occupying. Now, how to get you out of that seat? Hmmm....

7. Methinks it's the hunter in them. They are always picking up stimuli
that may suggest either food or danger.

:think:
