Cat language

I often talk to my cats and they often answer, I try and work out what they're trying to say. Boris my tuxedo cat has a good range of swear words, especially when I put any flea or worm drop on him, it sounds to me like 'FILTH, FILTH, HASSOCKS!' I can get the filth bit as hte stuff does smell a bit, but hassocks!?

He says milk, and if he dosen't it or dosen't get it fast enough, he stretches up and digs his claws in a bit just under your bum cheek and then tries to pull down your trousers!

  • An interesting paper on cat to human attachment, apparently a higher proportion of cats have a secure attachment to their care givers than dogs do: www.cell.com/.../S0960-9822(19)31086-3

  • I've seen quite a lot of the research on Cat-Human relationships and communication, it's interesting, totally different to Dog-Human communication.

    I often wonder about telepathy and cats, it does feel like things are being beamed into my brain.

  • If I was writing something for work, I would usually surround myself with separate piles of scientific papers, on the floor, sofa, bed, it was a form of crude filing. Our cat was invariably lying or sitting on the paper I particularly wanted, once I twigged this, I would look under him first of all.
