Animal instinct, pet owners swear by it. From
cats sensing impending health problems like seizures, to dogs
barking madly when unfamiliar footsteps appear on the garden

Even as far back as 373BC, it is recorded that animals, including
rats, snakes and weasels, deserted the Greek city of Helice
in droves just days before a quake devastated the place.
Those without that 'special bond', though, remain sceptical.
But doubters, prepare to be converted.
CCTV footage has emerged of a news station office in North
Carolina seconds before an eathquake struck on January 9.
