Suddenly, the cat leaped into the air, ran from her dish, and crouched down near a wall across the room. Her face looked frightened and alarmed. She stared at me. I had not made any move or sound.. I could not see what had alarmed her so much. I went to her, talking softly to calm her down, but she remained frightened, on high alert.
After a few minutes, she slowly calmed down and went back to her dish. My radio was on. About an hour later, the radio news reported that a minor quake, around 2.5 in strength, had occurred 50 to 60 miles away. They gave the time, which was exactly when the cat acted so strsngely.
Nobody in my region had felt it. Only a few people at the location of the quake reported feeling it.
But my cat had sensed it.
She also does not like it when it rains. She has been an indoor cat all her life, but takes shelter behind the couch when it rains, although only for hard downpours,.

She has very strong instincts and "vibes "
