A fine write about the communication you have with your cats and how you have come to understand them and their behaviour and our pets are so dear and precious to us that we must be able to provide and car for them, this is what you did here, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

Allie,

That is so remarkable! I can see why each of those guys would be so special to you. *smile* Sallie sounds like a lifesaver! Isn't it crazy what kind of bonds can be developed between humans and their pets?! It's so incredible.

A small note:
The(n) she would lay by my side, sort of rolled into me,

Thanks!

Hi. I really enjoyed reading about your beloved animals and the bond's between you. It's so great how close people can become with their pets, becoming very important in their lives. Like your dog Sallie: how incredible that she would know that you needed attention when your blood sugar was out of balance - that's extraordinary!! Good descriptive piece.
I did catch a couple of spelling errors I think. In the first paragraph "The list goes on to show that they each had they way to communicate". They way I think was meant to be "their way".
And also here: "The she would lay by my side, sort of rolled into me"
Have a look and edit if you wish.
Thanks for sharing

Oh, I wish I had the six stars for this marvelous story! I adore cats, always has them and did 10 years of animal rescue, saving cats on death row all across country.

Your black cat reminded me of my own cat Sabrina. She is quite a personality! Ironically, she claimed in my bath tub too several times, but she managed to get out on her own (lol).

Like you said, they have their own personalities and peculiarities, but they therapy to their humans.

Loved this, thank you for sharing.

That is amazing about Sallie. It is understandable that she knew when your blood sugar dropped because of the altered scent, but that doesn't answer the question how did she know that was important and you needed to take action? No wonder you miss her.

An interesting and informative article. Just one tweak needed here:
'For example, Storm, after her third attempt to get in the hot tub was when I learned that I needed to provide her with a means to get out of the tub.' => A sentence should be capable of standing alone and this one doesn't as it stands at the moment.

This story, Understanding Pets, gives three examples of your closenesss with your little friends. The cuteness of the swimming cat or the well-disciplined coven kitty, is out-done by Life-saving Sallie.
