I'm not for sure because I have never heard of a cat determining the weather. but I also am not for sure because I don't have a cat and I don't like cats so I never see them do those kind of things. I'm sure sometimes cats can determine the weather but not always. Some people that have a cat may believe and some may not but I've never heard of anything like an animal knowing what the weather is going to be but it is pretty fascinating. I liked this article

I think Professor Paul Dawson is right because no matter where the piece of food lands it is gross to pick it up and eat it again because that has germs on it and it can get you sick. it is really really really really really really REALLY bad for you and if you don't want to get sick then DON'T LISTEN TO THE 5 SECOND RULE. its not true and it could cause really bad sickness so i don't think anyone should eat food off the floor because it could get germs on it in a split second and germs don't wait 6 seconds for you to pic up your food so they won't get on it. They will get on it no matter what so i think you should never eat food off the ground even if it is your last piece or if you love it. never eat it off the ground. even if the ground just got swept or if it is clean. just still never eat any food that even touched the ground by a corner even if you take the corner off the germs can move to other places. germs can make you really sick and so you always wash your hands so it doesn't make since if you wash you hands but still think it is OK to eat food off the floor. the germs spread and it is really bad for you and you should never even eat food that touched the ground even if it only touched the ground for like 1 second it is still bad and get germs on it badly. the picture of the germs and a chip shows a great example because you count to five but the germs don't wait to spread on the chip so you should never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever EVER EVER EVER even think it is ok to eat any kind of food that touched the ground. So i definitely agree with Professor Paul Dawson and i think you should too. never listen to the 5 second rule. DUH!!!

I think that the proffesor is right. You never know what has been on whatever you dropped your food on. I think that you could get very sick from picking up food off the ground. There is so many different kinds of germs and bacteria everywhere. It is probably most likely that they will get all over the food you dropped even if it has been on the ground for less than 5 seconds.

I thought this was a great book. It got kind of scary at parts, but it was really good.
