CATS AND BOBS
PETS OF LEWES
Olive, 12, classic tabby. Olive was six months old and
on her way to Battersea Dogs & Cats Home after
a marriage breakdown (not hers) when a chance
encounter brought her to Lewes. Olive has spent
most of her life with her best cat pal Phoenix who
sadly died last year. Olive now sleeps on the garden
grave of the departed.
Loves: kaleidoscopes, dressage, Beowulf
Hates: automatic writing, Jason Donovan, swivel
chairs
One of Olive’s owners has epilepsy and Olive often
appears when a seizure is impending. It’s believed that
this ability in cats and dogs has less to do with psychic
skills and more with detecting minute biochemical
scents which are released in advance of a fit. All far
too subtle to be picked up by us primitive humans.
