Both cats and dogs can hear things we cannot, which is one reason dogs make such terrific home alarm systems. Cats can hear sounds several times higher than we can, which is useful when they hunt. If your cat leaps up, hisses and scoots out of the room - seemingly unprovoked - he might have been startled by something you couldn't hear.
This suggests that the inexplicable behaviors we may observe in our pets shouldn't be dismissed as simply nutty. The world they live in is different from ours - but we are growing closer and learning from each other every day.
