Re: Electrosensitivity and potential charge of a cat

["Bjorn Cedervall" <bcradsafers@HOTMAIL.COM>]

The following was pointed out in a direct response to me:



>I think the capacitance is more like 10-20 pF (pico-farads, not 

>nano-farads).

I will call the prof. again and check. I am definitely not the person

to ask and may be the cause due to bad memory - a factor of 1/1000 - must 

get that one right. The only experience I have is that cats sometimes bite 

without any obvious reason (when you stroke them) - may be it is due to 

small discharges that cats can feel. An alternative explanation could be 

general irritation like "don't disturb me".



Thank you for the two responses so far. I also thank other Radsafers to 

other responses to previous questions (other topics).
