Big confession – I talk to my cats. Okay, so maybe that isn’t a “big” confession. They appear to listenย to me a lot of the time and often they will meow in response when I greet them. Manna loves to have “conversations” with me. Do they understand me? Probably more than I realize they do. Cats are really smart! Of course, they tend to understand more of what I’m saying when treats are involved. ๐
When the camera comes out, the cats know it is time for play and treats. They love it! I tend to talk to them while I take pictures and tell them what I want them to do (whether they understand or not) and we have fun together. One of the things I tell them is to “do something funny.” This week when I told Cinco I wanted a funny picture from him, he had a great response. In his own shy, Cinco-sort of way he made me laugh. I love his silly antics!
Cinco: “How’s this, Mommy? Pbbbbttttt!”
MOL ! Excellent shot ! Purrs
Awww….he is very smart. I talk to my cats constantly. I sing too ( poor kitties).
My human communicates better with us kitties when she isn’t using human words, I’ve noticed. We are especially adept at not understanding that silly human word NO. ๐
The mom talks to us all the time. We usually ignore her unless we hear the words “wanna eat?” MOL!
I talk to the cats ALL the time. Like Manna, Sampson likes to talk back, and we have back-and-forth conversations. They are my favorite ๐ Love that photo of Cinco!! hehe
Cinco is a great cat model! I’m still trying to train Mister for photo shoots. Most of the times he still walks away ๐
I talk to my cats. Buster and I can have long conversations. He meows back at me. Emma on the other hand does not meow too often, she does in the morning when after patting my face with her paw a thousand times I still haven’t gotten out of bed or when she’s ready for bed and I am not. She sleeps with me between my legs so she needs me to be lying in bed so she can start sleeping. What a brat.
Cinco, good response as all humans love photos of cats showing their tongues. I talk to the cats constantly. They often meow back. Mauricio talks to me constantly.
