    More than likely your friend's depression was communicated to his dog by other means. (Not telepathically). Dogs tend to pick up on these things and there is probably a 'smell' thing going on when a person is depressed, that a dog is sensitive to.

    I expect you are right but there may be more to it. In a care home featured on TV, a dog would always go into the room of a person who was due to die that night. I can't imagine people who's last night had arrived would smell differently?

    In truth of course, you sat down next to an attractive woman in a bar intending to tell her about your telepathic watch, but before you could do so she stood up and left.

    Yes, but so far my mind is the only one I can read. Right now I'm working on sending thoughts telepathically to my banker. I check to see if my account balance is increasing. Nothing yet. 😉

    Apologies sir but I have telepathically intercepted your bank details and bought myself a large family of hedgehogs.

    I knew you would because I telepathically placed the idea in your head.

    The hedgehogs are gonna wreck the foundation of your house. 😉

    There is something called "synchronicity".

    The Point is: It is remarkable if two similar things happen at the same time (I just thought I should phone you and the phone rings). It is unremarkable if some thought occurs without a matching Happening (I should phone him...sometime, next thought).

    So People begin to note the fact that they experienced such a Thing and make a rule from that.

    The cat story could be tested by thinking about the cat say ten days in the evening and giving her say half an hour to occur. The homcoming of the cat without "calling" her should be noted to see if any pattern occurs. If the "calling" is succesful statistically significant you may be up to something.

    Thanks for that. I was interested to hear of other incidents which may have indicated telepathy. You may like: "The roots of coincidence" by Arthur Koestler
