“但是这个发现非常棒，也很令人惊讶，并且一定可以启发更多的研究。”麦克康说，他并未参与这次研究。

"But these findings are excellent, and a surprise, and definitely should spur more work," said McComb, who did not take part in the new study.

麦克·康姆想到研究她自己的经历，她和她的猫。这只猫总是能在早晨用一种非常急迫的声音将她叫醒。

McComb got the idea for the study from her experience with her own cat, who would consistently wake her up in the mornings with a very insistent purr.
