My cat just saw a ghost!
Here's a pic of my two cats as kittens. One them was standing frozen for over 2 minutes staring intensely at the bedroom doorway. Then he took off like lighting running away from nothing....Maybe i have a ghost.....?

2. He's okay now
He hid behind the sofa and wouldn't come out. He poked his head out when i shook his container of cat treats. He soon forgot his fear and had some treats. Once every 3 months or so they get all freaked out at nothing. I don't know why.

3. cat treats! Mmmmmm...
can't ignore the mighty power of kitty treats.

Mine do the same freaky behavioral stuff. An instant zap of energy manifests itself out of the blue, and they bound about the room and the topple things off the coffee table. But it's usually a playful thing complete with wild eyes all agog and staccato tail flicks.

Glad your kitty is ok!

4. If you have a ghost, Goth, the kitties will see it!
My dear departed Ginger Puss, Sam, loved sleeping in the bath or on the bathroom rug whenever he got the chance.

As soon as our smart tabby Cud moved in after Mrs. Skin and I were married (and some years after Sam's demise), he began spending a lot of time in the bathroom lying on the rug and staring fondly at the bath or even climbing on the edge and staring into it for long periods.Obviously communing with Sam.:-)

Gave me a great idea for a story which I'll get round to writing one day.

6. What adorable little guys! Are they twins?
They are really lovely little kittens. Cats can act spooky. Also dogs. I have had both. My dogs will often bark at things I certainly can't see. They enjoy it. I don't think you have a ghost, but they probably just responded to something you overlooked, like your neighbor pulling in, the mailman, the neighbor's dog barking. Anyway, that's been my experience. But, again, they are just so cute! Thanks for sharing them with us!
