Pets and plurals
In our household, there are two multiples and five cats. The cats can tell who's out, and all of the cats actually have their favorites. The person doesn't even have to speak: as soon as they come out, the cat comes out of whatever hidey-hole they'd been snoozing in just to say hello.
Anyone else have this happen? If so, do you have any theories as to how, precisely, the animals know? Do the pets overhear mention of the name before the person comes out and react to that? Is it a shift in energy -- perhaps a high-strung animal being attracted to a calm person as opposed to an excitable one? Does it involve flying toasters -- telepathy, anyone?
So...thoughts?
(For the record and the curious: Wiley loves everyone, but especially loves the Turks; Sami is Cloud's cat but I think she likes Weiss more; Syrius adores Nero and Braden, while mocking the heck out of the Crawford contingent proper; though Herme is Kadaj's kitten he's really Yazuu's baby; and Beanie has completely claimed Yazuu as her person -- she calls him Ma-lau. Seriously.)
