FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEWho Knew Animals Have a Sixth Sense? August 20, 2007, Minneapolis, MN -- Long before Oscar, the nursing home cat who made national news for accurately predicting patients’ demise, Minnesota authors Allen and Linda Anderson became experts about animals having a sixth sense. Allen Anderson says, “By starting the Angel Animals Network in 1996 we are using the power of story to show that animals often sense suffering or danger and serve as messengers for healings, miracles, and blessings.” People can subscribe to the free Angel Animals Story of the Week at www.angelanimals.net. The Andersons’ books are available in bookstores worldwide and on the Angel Animals website. Allen and Linda Anderson chronicle such “sixth sense” capabilities as: Precognition – Harley, a nursing home cat in Nashville, visits residents and gives whatever they need – a good laugh, a cuddle, a friendly purr for the staff. Like Oscar, this cat is one of the facility’s best predictors for when someone will be dying soon (from Angel Cats). Dream warnings – A deceased Great Dane, Keira, communicated in a dream to Nora that her sister, of whom the dog had been fond, should get a breast exam. Not knowing that her sister had found a lump in her right breast, Nora told her about the dream. Her sister got a mammogram that relieved her anxiety by showing the lump to be benign (from Rainbows & Bridges). Afterdeath visitations – While a military officer was guarding Air Force One, he dozed off just before his supervisor walked into the hangar. He awoke to the sensation of his dog Freckles licking his face. Because Freckles had died months earlier, the officer was shocked to feel the dog’s saliva on his cheek and to see him clearly appear and then fade away. (from Angel Dogs). Sensing danger – Misha, a Siamese cat, uncharacteristically tore apart a tube of eye ointment the veterinarian had prescribed. His human companion Kristy took the cat back to the vet who realized that Misha had been prescribed the wrong medication (from Angel Animals). Healing touch– Carol’s cats took turns waking her at night by massaging her chest. Later, her doctor said the cats had been pacemakers when Carol’s heart stopped beating. After the doctor implanted a mechanical pacemaker, the cats stopped their nightly vigil (from Angel Cats). Higher Callings – While Renee painted the pasture fence, her horse Cholla got an idea. He nuzzled her until she let him help by dipping a brush in paint and handing it to the horse. This began Cholla’s brilliant career as an artist horse whose paintings are shown in museums and galleries and were featured on Martha Stewart’s television show (from Angel Horses). Telepathic Communications – Kathryn’s family had to leave a dog, a fish, a bird, and her dog Katie behind in the attic when a boat rescued them after Hurricane Katrina. Later, Katie wouldn't go with animal rescuers. She scooted deeper into the flooded apartment, leading the rescuers to the bird and fish on a top shelf. Only after they were safe, would Katie get into the boat. She and the entire family were reunited (from Rescued). The Andersons’ best-selling books, published by New World Library, have been featured on national wire service stories (Gannett, Knight-Ridder, Associated Press) and television programs (Montel, The Today Show, ABC Nightly News).
