Our last cat but one could hear? smell? my husband when he turned the corner 100 yards away on his way home from work.
She would open an eye, listen then vacate his armchair, which she certainly didn't do for anyone else!
My parents put two dogs into care when they moved to Scotland the year I was born as they didn't have a house to move to.
When my father collected them at the local station - they had been sent in the guard's van, as you did then from Huddersfield to Barrhead, they were thrilled to see him.
He set off to a house they had never been in before, in an area they didn't know, and a mile from their new home, his well-trained dogs went completely beserk jumping around in the back of the car, whining and barking.
He could only ever explain it by saying that at that distance they had caught my mother's scent.
