The event I’m about to describe happened Monday, Sept. 24th about 2:00 PM.
I had taken a break and was watching the news. I sat on the sofa in the living room and the cat came up and sat next to me. He always curls up next to whoever sits on the sofa. As I sat there I suddenly felt a ‘jolt’ as if someone had kicked the sofa, but there was no sound along with this jolt.
The cat jumped up and stared at the floor in front of the sofa, at the left end. I was sitting on the right end. He stood there staring at the floor, then slowly started creeping toward that end of the sofa, very carefully as if he was ready to back up or bolt off the couch. He finally reached the other end of the sofa and was sniffing around and still watching the floor.
He then started pawing at something, or nothing, in front of the sofa. There was nothing there that I could see, but evidently he saw or felt something. He continued to paw at nothing in front of the sofa, then as if something suddenly happened, he lurched back and hissed towards the floor in front of the sofa.
He then jumped off the sofa, but the jump was strange also, it was as if he were jumping ‘over’ something. He jumped in a very high arch, hit the floor, ran to the other side of the room and turned and stared at that end of the sofa.
I didn’t see or feel anything but he wouldn’t take his eyes off of that end of the sofa. I did hear a noise, for a split second, that sounded like an insect buzzing but I saw nothing and this was broad daylight. Had it been an insect, surely I would have seen it.
The cat finally settled down and about an hour later I got him to come back up on the sofa as if nothing had happened.
weird to say the least. your cat had to of seen or sensed some kind of presence based on how it reacted. if it were me – i’d have been out of that living room @ about mach one!
Rob,
Logic would dictate that most people would react the exact same way, getting out of there as fast as possible. I have witnessed some really strange and unexplainable things, with my own eyes and right in front of me, and the feeling that I always get is kind of “What in the world”…or “How can that happen” type thing. I always want to stay put and figure out what just happened.
In the beginning, I did get spooked about a few of these happenings but only AFTER I had time to think about them and realize that there was no earthly explanation for them. Once you realize what actually and really happened, it does get kinda spooky. But I’ve gotten over that spooky feeling and am actually getting used to these weird happenings. Strange huh?
