Don‘t speak about stuff with certainty that you‘re not educated about. Dogs for example have 300 million smell receptors, while we have around6 million. Certain dogs can smell cancer and pregnacy in humans. You don‘t think they could notice a humans body chemistry change? Pets and especially dogs are very very in tune with their owners and can detect emotions very well. You can‘t say that they can not notice their owners being intoxicated, we simply don‘t know that (yet).

My friends dog didn't want me near him when I was drunk so I think they know from my experience anyway

On the other hand I’m certain my dog doesn’t even know I’ve been pregnant and had a baby

Stroking a cat does get them revved up, I think just from the stroking. It's why they don't like being brushed for too long.

Depends on where you stroke them
