Today, as I was on the couch taking a nap, it started violently shaking. I panicked and chased my family outside, convinced it was an earthquake. It was just the cat trapped inside the couch. FML

I don't think I'd want to be outside during an earthquake... I dunno, just MY personal preference.

When there's an earthquake, you are not supposed to leave the house.

Yes, you are. Old protocol is to get into a door way or under a table, now you're supposed to go outside away from power lines and trees.

You're only supposed to go away from power lines and trees if you're ALREADY outside. Most houses built in areas that experience earthquakes won't collapse, you're still supposed to get under a table. -M.ready.Illinois.gov

I don't know, my Doctor is a BIG cat, I bet he would shake the sofa enough to scare me. OP's cat is probably big, too.

@62. You don't go under a bed in an earthquake and some houses don't have basements People go outside so their houses don't crush them. But I wasn't aware that Missouri had earthquakes.
