How? How did this cat know? How?

1. Cats can hear you thinking about tuna - anywhere in the house.

4. Ocelot II is correct.

Cats know everything.

8. The more I hang around cats the more convinced I am

that they are magic in some ways. They do stuff that seems just inexplicable.

2. Pure coincidence

6. The sounds.

3. The cat can hear the cheerful sounds of you're getting into the tuna. If I touch the lid

of this ceramic decanter I keep the cat treats in, ZOOM, from anywhere in the house! She does the same with her canned cat food if she's close enough. She can't hear that one so well the way my kitchen is set up.

5. Awe come on! Give the dog more treats than just one and no tuna.

The dog can smell the tuna and want it.

7. Super sensitive hearing. My cat does the same thing.

Exact same action when I open the can of tuna. She know she gets it between 10-11 in the morning, so she is probably extra alert. But as soon as I put that can on the counter and open the utensil drawer she is out from wherever she was and at my feet no matter how quiet I try to be.

12. My ferals know exactly when I take dry food out of the bag and

when I open a can of friskies. They gather at the patio door - they know what time they are fed and they know the sounds.

9. Heard pantry door opening.

The guy was not quiet.

11. My thoughts too.

The cat was probably heading that direction soon after the loudly squeaky door was opened.

I was able to surprise cats with a bowl of wet food, from a can, when I was truly quiet about it.

Whenever I'd made any noise like opening a drawer of utensils, the cat showed up in the kitchen to see what I was doing.

13. Our cats hear the pantry door open no matter where they're at in the house.

Even if they’re asleep.

10. My kitteh has a hairbrush/hair fetish.

She can hear me brushing my hair from downstairs while she is dead asleep on her cat tree, wakes up, and comes running.
