Your cat probably cannot understand that, in the event of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) launch from Russia, London would likely receive an estimated 15 to 20 minutes of public warning, that warning buzz on your phone will enable you to have time to finally settle any important unfinished business. Surely that unpleasant noise is outweighed by such an advantage.Or the houseproud types could finish their washing-up, perhaps. They won't need to dry it.
