My dog knows when it's time to go outside to pee or poop and also knows when it's time to meet the bus when My children come home from school. My cats know when it's time to get fed and will not leave me alone until I feed them.
I know I'm being a smart-ass here. Please excuse me. I can talk with my animals, and they with me. Not in english, mind you, but we communicate in a very rudimentary way, because I pay attention to how they communicate. I had problems with my cats until one day, outloud, I told them that I wanted to be their friends and I wanted them to be my friends. Since that day, they have become considerably more affectionate and attentive, as have I. I also asked them to be friends to the dog and asked the dog to be friends to them and now they all curl up and sleep on each other. It's really quite amazing. But not magical. If there is someone in your house, tell them to leave. Whatever you do, don't invite something you cannot see to stay. That is just poor judgement. should you do that, expect your cats to treat you like you're nuts and no longer to be trusted.
