Wonder if they’ve picked up on the fact that humans almost always respond/acknowledge another’s sneeze when in relative close proximity, even strangers. They’ve got nothing better to do than watch us, watch them (sadly). 

My cat communicates mostly through disdainful looks and knocking things off my nightstand at 4 a.m.
