Cat Conversations

Bootsy, our cat, has been very vocal lately. I'm not sure what his issue is, but he's been needing a lot of attention.

The other day I found my daughter sitting with Bootsy having a conversation. It went like this:

Bootsy: "Meow!"

My daughter:  "Meow!"

Bootsy:  "Meowwww!"

My daughter:  "Meowwww!"

Bootsy:  "Meeeeeow!"

My daughter:  "Meeeeeow!"

I walked over and looked at the two of them. "What's going on here?"

My daughter grinned. "Bootsy needed someone to talk to. I'm his therapist."

  4. "Meow!" means "I'm hungry."

    "Meowwww!" means "Hey, I said I'm HUNGRY!"

    "Meeeeeow!" means "Why are you still sitting here? Go get me some FOOD!"

    1. Cats can be very cuddly. Sorry yours was diabetic. I'm sure it was a lot of work to care for it.

  10. Great job with counseling! If Bootsy is anything like our dog, Elliott, some words of wisdom really are helpful!

  12. Bootsy darling, tell Mommy. What is it? How can I help? Penelope still hasn't barked. She made her moo/bray sound once, and that's it. Maybe she doesn't know how to bark.

    Love,
    Janie

    1. Penelope hasn't barked? Wow! She must be seriously introverted.

    2. She's still quite frightened. She stays very close to me.

  13. Haha. I don't know about you, but my daughter has gotten so good at meowing that I often think it's actually one of the cats.

    1. Listening to the two of them converse, it was difficult to tell which was my daughter and which was the cat.

  16. Oh I adore vocal cats. Our tomcat (notice how its always male cats?), Puck, was incredibly talkative.

    1. That's interesting that it is the male cat that is so vocal.
