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!

  • I always remember my former cat who came to us as a stray and stayed for eight years.

    She had good communication skills, when she wanted food she went to her food tray and waited and meowed.   Once my mother ignored her demand for food because she was at the door gossiping with a neighbour.  The cat got it's teeth round her ankle but didn't bite hard just enough to be felt, as an ultimatum,  hurry up and feed me or I will bite you.
