spuglife,

Welcome to Shadowlands..

You asked some questions that I know I can help you with involving
your death of your Uncle.. Sorry for you loss!!

Yes, it was him coming to you at your friend's place at the time
or near the time of his death. I have had a friend of mine come to
me at the exact time of her death some 2000 miles away as she
appeared as a full apparition!! The vocal spirit whisper was him
letting you know he was with you but he knows that you were
skeptical and did not want to scare you.. So that is why your
dog was able to sense his astral being there after he died!!

Dogs, cats and other animals are very special on many accounts
and one of the main aspects is that they do sense or smell and
see others that most humans do not see!! Just like dogs, cats
and other animals can hear better than humans too..

I am a cat person and take care of 4 cats plus some neighborhood
cats too.. I have witnessed my cats acting strange as you mentioned
looking or watching and moving their heads to the side when
observing images or beings or unseen astral forms around me
and my wife. My home is a major spiritual portal and it may be
more linked to the land and me personally being a psychic/medium..

Are you aware that for many civilations and spiritual groups have
and do see cats and other animals as sacred and astral guardians
of the veils between the world of physical with the etheral or astral
realms.. Egypticians have a deity called Bast who is the Goddess
of CATS.. Animals are so keen and do not think as we do with
rational thoughts but are more intuned to their environment
by smell, sight, taste, touch and hearing.. They are incline to
use there inner animal instincts for assessing their realities
and look to us as humans to help us to allocate better understandings
of the paranormal..

great example is what I just read recently about the Giant
earthquake in China!!!



Chinese wonder if animals can predict earthquake

By HENRY SANDERSON, Associated Press Writer Thu May 15, 4:42 AM ET

BEIJING - First, the water level in a pond inexplicably plunged.
Then, thousands of toads appeared on streets in a nearby province.
Finally, just hours before China's worst earthquake in three decades,
animals at a local zoo began acting strangely.

As bodies are pulled from the wreckage of Monday's quake,
Chinese online chat rooms and blogs are buzzing with a question:
Why didn't these natural signs alert the government that a disaster was coming?

"If the seismological bureau were professional enough they could
have predicted the earthquake ten days earlier, when several thousand
cubic meters of water disappeared within an hour in Hubei, but the
bureau there dismissed it," one commentator wrote.

In fact, seismologists say, it is nearly impossible to predict when
and where an earthquake will strike.

Several countries, including China, have sought to use changes in nature
- mostly animal behavior - as an early warning sign. But so far, no reliable
way has been found to use animals to predict earthquakes, said Roger Musson,
a seismologist with the British Geological Survey.

But that has not stopped a torrent of online discussion.
Even the mainstream media has chimed in, with an article in
Tuesday's China Daily newspaper questioning why the
government did not predict the earthquake.

Online commentators say the first sign came about three weeks ago,
when large amounts of water suddenly disappeared from a pond in
Enshi city in Hubei province, around 350 miles east of the epicenter,
according to media reports.

Then, three days before the earthquake, thousands of toads roamed
the streets of Mianzhu, a hard-hit city where at least 2,000 people
have been reported killed.
Mianzhu residents feared the toads were a sign of an approaching natural
disaster, but a local forestry bureau official said it was normal, the Huaxi
Metropolitan newspaper reported May 10, two days before the earthquake.

The day of the earthquake, zebras were banging their heads against a door
at the zoo in Wuhan, more than 600 miles east of the epicenter,
according to the Wuhan Evening Paper.

Elephants swung their trunks wildly, almost hitting a staff member.
The 20 lions and tigers, which normally would be asleep at midday,
were walking around. Five minutes before the quake hit, dozens
of peacocks started screeching.

There are a few possible reasons for such behavior, said Musson,
the seismologist. The most likely is that the movement of underground
rocks before an earthquake generates an electrical signal that some
animals can perceive. Another theory holds that other animals can
sense weak shocks before an earthquake that are imperceptible to humans.

Zhang Xiaodong, a researcher at the China Seismological Bureau,
said his agency has used natural activity to predict earthquakes 20 times
in the past 20 years, but that still represents a small proportion of China's earthquakes.

"The problem now is this kind of relationship is still quite vague," he said.
In winter 1975, Chinese officials ordered the evacuation of the city of Haicheng
in northeastern Liaoning province the day before a 7.3 magnitude earthquake,
based on reports of unusual animal behavior and changes in ground water levels.

Still, more than 2,000 people died. Strange environmental phenomena including
changes in well water levels, were also reported a year later before a 7.6
magnitude earthquake in Tangshan in northeastern China that killed 240,000, Musson said.

A team of Chinese seismologists was sent to the region but didn't find
any evidence to suggest an earthquake. As the seismologists were going
home, they stopped for the night in Tangshan and were killed in the quake.
