Quake
So much for my feline early warning devices: my cats slept through the earthquake. I was sitting at my desk when the floor began to shake—the tremor didn’t last long, but it was intense. My cats went on napping—Saffy right on my desk, Mat on the couch, Koosi on top of a bookshelf. It was as if nothing had happened. Friends who live in tall buildings said they could hear the structures groaning. Scary. When was the last big earthquake, ’99? The one followed by the blackout caused by jellyfish? Ten minutes before it happened my ginger cat Koosi started howling like a horror-movie sound effect, and then an invisible giant was shoving the furniture around.

I live on the 15th floor and didn’t feel a thing. Of course, at the time of the quake I was jumping to one of Nirvana’s songs. Maybe that might have had something to do with it. It’s either that or I may be related to one of your cats.

I just thought i was having a terrible headache and feeling sick again. Then, the news came about that there was a quake. Am I THAT hypochondriac? Pfft.
