I have 6 cats and only one talks when he is hungry, but my cat "baby" talks all the time. When my male "sudan" is hungry he will shake both his paws one at a time, sit, lay down and jump from our island to counter through a hoop. I had a toy poodle who I taught my sign language to, and she would do the things I signed her from across the room. When I want to take my cats for a walk (on a turnabout dead end street) I ring a crystal bell and they all come to me to go for a walk. I call them my lions because they follow me like I see people walk lions!!love my babies!

Brandon mcmillan is the most gentle, thorough and effective dog i've ever encountered. My friend and i love the dog show and never miss it. So many times we've shed a tear of happiness just seeing a dog's life changed forever when proper training is applied and they go on to live their lives the way they should. I have brandon's book kzread.infoUgkxK8-VQWpYThx4IC6MiIvb6VS1ebTzzdxq in two formats. Not only the paperback version but also the kindle version to refer to when i don't have the paperback along with me. I have used his methods with my cavalier kc spaniel and turned a non-disciplined furbaby into a companion who has traveled thousands of miles with us across the country. He is a near perfect dog thanks to brandon's methods. I don't get one cent of kickback for recommending brandon but i do it because i love dogs. They deserve to be given a chance. Brandon's mission in life - to rescue dogs and place them in a forever, happy home - is very dear to my heart. I recommend his methods to anyone who has a dog - young or old. I've seen him take even old dogs and teach them. Brandon was an animal trainer before his current mission. His parents were animal trainers. His methods are the best i've ever found. Your furbaby will thank you for spending the money on this book. Don't hesitate - it is worth every cent.

My 1-year-old acts just like this! The reason Birdie talks to you so much is, probably, because he's mimicking you (or previous owners). When you talk to your cat a lot, they'll gradually learn to do so back. My partner and I chat with our youngest all the time and she's a non-stop talker as a result! It's easy to assume cats are naturally standoffish and just lay around and groom themselves all day, but every cat has its own unique personality and they can be just as goofy and playful as a dog if they wanna be. They're truly amazing animals.

I have found after years of owning cats, that they become very responsive and communicative if you spend time talking to them. They do recognize many words, and they know you are talking to them to tell them something. If you repeat many of the same sentences often, it will become clear they know what you are saying. They also will change their meow to fit the situation, and it sounds like they're trying to talk. My cat Lily and I are very close, and she knows many things I say, and will look me right in the eyes. If I say I'm going out, she reacts one way, if I say it's bedtime, she runs up the stairs. If I say "Tangie" is outside (a stray that she is friends with), she'll go to the glass and look out, or look at the door. Her vocabulary is quite extensive. But it means we must believe our animals want to understand what we are saying. They become better pets with communication. Much better. And they also know we care enough to try.

I think you are absolutely right. When I was a teenager I worked in a pet shop and one day a woman brought in a 4-week old kitten and left him with the owner. I took him home and bottle-fed this kitten for about three weeks and decided to keep him. As Paco grew., I found that he would come running just like a dog when I called him. Later on, I moved to a house with some guys I worked with. The house backed up to a field and each day when I returned from work I would open the back door from which I had a full view of the field and the Golf course beyond. I would call Paco by name and could view him come running, sometimes from several hundred yards away. He would also jump in my lap if I asked him to and patted my leg. He was a lot more like a dog than most cats I have ever been around. I always attributed this to the bond we developed when he was a kitten.

Many don't seem to know how social cats can actually be but I think it has to do with his breed too but definitely good to talk with your cat. Cats can be very social and intelligent, very unique special animals.

I grew up with dogs and never had cats until after I was married. We have always talked to our cats and had conversations with them. We love them to death and cuddle, play, and sleep with them. One plays fetch and likes water. This doesn't mean they're like dogs. Through tons of interaction, socialization, and playing with them, they are simply cats. Still different than dogs but super loving. People, as I once was guilty of, seem to not understand cats. They can be trained, they understand a ton of what we say to them, we understand what different sounds and meows of theirs mean, they're very loving and want to be loved as well. ❤️

I’ve never had a cat but I’ve certainly noticed how a lot of them “converse” by vocalizing in response to a human speaking to them. I kind of marvel that they understand the concept of conversation this way.

Adult cats actually don't meow at each other, they just meow at people. Recent studies show that cats learned to meow just to communicate with humans. It's the only species that has a unique language developed just for that purpose. Probably because we're to dumb to learn to speak cat.

Ive always had these, only cats I get. You can walk them like a dog, w/o a leash of course. Walk to the store, come out, they'll be waiting. Go to the park, they disappear into the trees for an hour, and when you call their name they'll bound out and answer you. Coolest pet you can have.

My Maine coon would say “mommy, mommy” walking down the hall towards me. She mimicked my daughter so well I could not tell the difference. She would say “no” if she didn’t want something. She could open kitchen cupboards above the counter. She opened my bedroom door by climbing the bookcase beside the door and using two paws to turn the knob. She was over 25 lbs and I miss her.

OMG You have no idea how healing this was for me to watch! Thank you! My best buddy was a cat called Sherlock, he was my absolute favourite thing about this life for 13 years and he passed in March this year and I am so heartbroken. He looked and behaved exactly like Birdie, down to his size, fluff, colouring and sound of his voice! He had a different type of meow for how he was feeling and what he was telling me, he was so good at communicating and such a happy playful floofball! I haven't been able to watch the videos I took of Sherlock yet because it's too painful still but seeing Birdie made me smile so hard and melted my heart! Thank you for sharing!

still acts like a cat, but if this isn't one of the cutest cats I've ever seen. the chirps and meows warmed my cat-loving heart. 😭😭😭

Aside from mother cats talking to their kittens, cats don't meow at each other. They have specifically learned to talk to humans to get what they want from us.

You go out of your way to see to his well being. You talk to him. You listen when he talks to you. You greet him when you see him. You acknowledge him when he walks past you, often reaching out for a scritch in just the right spot. Your actions show the cat he is secure and a valuable part of your little family. You give him confidence. That confidence and security really lets the fun come out of cats. I have enjoyed my cats so much.

The head shape is the biggest difference between the two and the breeders will know the differences, I have a Norwegian laying in front of me right now so I can see the difference.

This is exactly like my tortie. She had been in and out of shelters because she's a little ball of anxious neurotic energy and it was difficult getting her comfortable in our home.

She'll hold full conversations with you and play fetch and her favorite thing is to scream at you and flop on the floor until you pet her belly and then slide her along the carpet. We call it going "Weeeee!" I'm so glad her previous owners didn't have the patience because we would have never ended up with her.
