Kraig, lol on your kittie's voice overs.!! I would love to hear how Selah sounds. Does he try to mimic the birds by any chance? kind of squeking? something tells me he does. And Tots with her Tribble impersonation, that has to be a riot to listen to. ((giggles)).
Marty, thats cool on Tiger saying HUH? I do believe they do talk, in their own form or communication and in our language as well.
Don T..sorry about you losing your kitty. I know all of us here who have lost our furkids can understand your pain, part of it never leaves..oh yes, the puppies are very wise, as well as the kitties too.! Mans best friend, as they saw with Dogs, yet I believe that kitties rank up there too but some people don't think cats are smart like dogs, but be around them and one learns differently..giggles. Our kitties are so loving and not at all elusive We've raised them, talking to them with our language, and in sentences as though they understand and they do.I dont tolerate fighting or bullying and at times little Annie likes to throw her weight around but she knows what the word STOP means. Good grief I've said it enough times to her. Now when I say it, what ever she is doing, she'll stop and walk away. lol. I'll say something to them and then when they respond to that, at times I am really shocked, but then again not at all, because that's the way theyve been raised.
I know our kitties blurt out human words. At times we think we are heaing things, but then again, when they repeat it again and again so clearly, we know we aren't hearing things, and even more so, when we both hear it. lol..Fancy says has his little list of words that he says clearly..not trying to make a word out of a muble but actually can hear the words. OUT is very clear when he wants to go outside. Infact it can be very annoying, just ask his daddy Marlin. hehehe. Also he says MOM. That was a shocker the first time I heard that., but yeppers, when he wants me, he will say Mom very clearly. You can ask him a question and he will softly answer yeah or no, depending on the answer..please is on his list too. Tootsie says hellLLOOO emphasising the eelllOOO part, in a happy tone, also have heard her say pease for please. lol. Stinker and Hannah both say HI very clearly, but usually Hannah says it more in a whisper. Stinker always says wuv u..for love you and and both girls have said yeah and no when one asks them a question as well. Also I have heard Stinker say I dont know.. clearly enough to understand it..and oww and she also chitters like the birds, and sometimes she does a really good job. Annie doesnt really say anything clearly yet. seems like there is more but can't think of them right now.
Now, onto something that blew my mind one morning. Marlin gave Tootise some treats on the kitchen counter one morning. He just kind of tossed them on the counter. He went to get a drink of water and when he went back to her..this is what he found..looks kind of like the number 8 doesn't it?
he called me into the kitchen and said look at what Tootsie just did. I said, no way, and I thought for sure he was joking with me, but he said, honest, he did not do it,and she arranged them like that and I could tell he wasn't fibbing me..I can tell when he is..so what do you think of that. When I asked Toots how she did that, she just looked at me, like , you think I'm gonna tell you?
have a good one.
and the Kitties
