They bat at the air with their paws, meow, hiss, and make strange noises at things that we can’t see. My little sister and I have had experiences where our cats see things that aren’t there. I believe there is something more to this phenomena that delves into the metaphysical realm. There is, of course, no way to know what is really going on because we cannot communicate on the level we would need to for confirmation. Many studies that have been carried out on the senses of dogs offers quite a debate on the psychic abilities and sensory perceptions of them. By researching how much light passes through the lens to reach the retina, they concluded that some mammals previously thought not to be able to see UV actually can.” Scientists studied the lenses of dead mammals, including cats, dogs, monkeys, pandas, hedgehogs, and ferrets. It was previously thought that most mammals have lenses similar to humans.

Humans have a lens that blocks UV from reaching the retina. UV light is the wave length beyond the visible light from red to violet that humans can see. Cats, dogs, and other mammals are thought to see in ultraviolet light, which opens up a whole different world than the one we see, the study explains. “Have you ever felt that your cat or dog can see something you don’t? Well, you may be right, according to a new study. It’s simple really: the scientific explanation is that cats and dogs can see UV light and a few other rays, which human retinas don’t have the ability to see. It makes sense scientifically in a separate way from spiritually. However, this simply goes to underline the fact that animals, including dogs and cats, may sense many things that we are not able to. Of course, there’s a big difference between earthquakes and spirits. This is a phenomenon that continues to be observed to this day, though it is still not fully understood. In records from the year 373 BC, historians noted that many animals, “including rats, snakes and weasels” fled the Greek city of Helice prior to a devastating earthquake. Their keen senses mean that animals may also have the ability to predict earthquakes, a belief that, as National Geographic reports, dates back centuries.

He can hear much higher frequencies, and at four times the distance of a human with normal hearing.” This, some claim, could mean that dogs and other animals also sense the paranormal, and are often more accepting of it. Do you feel like some other entities exist around us, just as ultraviolet rays exist around us that we can’t perceive, and only certain animals are, perhaps even only sometimes, aware of them? Even mainstream science recognizes cats, dogs, and other animals can see frequencies humans can’t. It’s well known that dogs and cats have much better senses than humans.Īccording to Animal Planet, a dog’s eyes “detect more delicate movements his sense of smell is 1,000 to 10,000 times more sensitive than a human’s.
