   We've had that happen (although not quite as dramatic) in my own family as a   
   young boy.  Cats and dogs are very intelligent and know how to get our   
   attention.  I remember when we first brought home Felix, he accidentally wound   
   up in our pantry that we had in our apartment at the time (Felix is intensly   
   curious about /everything/ and anything).  Tigger sat in front of the pantry   
   and let out this loud yowl, which we know from experience is his "mouser" yowl   
   (a warning to mice :).  He kept yowling and I knew we had no mice, so I got up   
   and walked over to the pantry.  Tigger began walking circles around the pantry   
   door as if he'd caught a mouse.   
      
   Intrigued, I opened up the pantry door and out popped a slightly confused   
   Felix.   Tigger got some catmilk (a special treat) for that, which he   
   begrudgingly shared with Felix.
