I most certainly not be whispering any secrets within fifty feet of
Senyah from here on out (grin).

If it makes you feel better / more secure, I think that there's definitely a
selective hearing thing that goes on. Parents can often hear a distressed
child when other noises won't wake them. I know that the sound of a dog
whining or cat mewling will wake me up, but in particular the sound of a dog
about to hurl will propel me out of bed with uncanny speed =P

So true. Thunder, husband, sirens or loud neighbors don't wake me up but a
cat's quiet "meowm?" or a kitty about to hurl will have me instantly alert

LOL, I used to be the same way. Slept soundly through humungous
thunderstorms right over my house, but the sound of my roommate
tiptoeing up the hallway in her slippers would wake me up - go figure.

I say "used to be" that way, because it all changed when I discovered
the wonder of Elective Deafness Through Earplugs.
