I live on Vancouver Island, we also noticed a different in our ferrets before it hit. they were very agaited, like they knew something was going to happen and also we had one on the west side of the island around 11 pm and they woke up too, also I was sleeping and had ear plugs in and I heard the rumble and Jim said I screamed, which I didn't remember doing. So they do know or feel when something is going to happen. Marie and the 6 hoodlums [Posted in FML issue 2731]
