My cat just told me this article is full of crap.

Wait...

Imo, cats talk to you when you have figured out what their quirks are.. both in their actions and the mews, noise they make..

my cats used to talk to me..

If I saw Squeek staring intently at the wall or some spot on the floor, while slowly flicking his tail, that meant he had his eyes on a fly or bug.. and looking for his chance to attack..

when he saw a bird thru the window he made the funniest sound.. he only made that sound for birds, no other time..

I would see a cat outside thru the window and I would tell him "get the kitty, get the kitty".. and he would tear over to the window, scratching the glass like mad, and snort.. he wanted to get that kitty! I don't think he realized that is what he was..

Squeek would stare at me when I was in the bathroom, sitting there trapped.. with my nekked knees exposed.. that stare meant "pat me, give me attention or I will bite your kneecaps until you pat me".. yup, he loved it when I was trapped in the bathroom.. and yes, he would bite my kneecaps, then stare again, then bite, then stare.. and yes, I did pat him & give him attention.. My kneecaps could only take so much torture, ya know..
