Hi Myplanet2,
The dogs got on very well with the cat, and indeed still do.
I don't know what sparked off their behaviour a few days ago, which is why I posted the thread, I've never seen anything like it before.
The whole story brings up more questions than it does answers.
Did I not understand what the dogs were 'saying' when they went crazy?
Were they frightened because if they sensed the cat returning, they accepted the cat as gone forever?
Did they think the cat (if the cat has anything to do with their behaviour) was coming back from the dead?
Was it just a huge coincidence?
Was it the heavy air pressure that day?
Did they hear something strange that only their ears could have picked up (although other dogs in the area remained quiet)?
Did they pick some smell up from the air which I didn't realize?
All these questions remain open and that without going into the subject of supernatural beings blah blah blah.
The cat returning was a complete suprise to me, could have been just a coincidence, but nonetheless worth adding into the equation.
Best regards,
Steve

Would your dogs have some reason to be afraid of the cat? I would think if they were picking up the cat's return, they'd be excited. Dogs usually embrace their adoptive families.
