My cat has mastered a significant part of the alphabet and has her own repertoire of words and sentances. For example:

- miaw: feed me

- mnaw: where have you been? feed me now!
- mnaa: i’m really hungry

- mnawawaw: it’s midnight but i don’t feel like going to bed now, i want to go outside!

- mné: i’m really hungry, have pity on me… (coupled with a sad face)
- mnéééé…: I do not like this at all (eg. being left at a friend’s house while I’m away)
- mniaw: i don’t like this (eg. shower, grooming etc.)

- myaa: you woke me up!

- myé: no, i want to stay outside!

- she also makes a nasal sound when she wants me to get up and take her to the food (she doesn’t eat without an invitation though she knows where the food is… even when she is alone), but i don’t know of any vowel that can duplicate that sound.

To hear her, you’d think she never ate but she is quite well fed. She’s quite spoiled actually. Anyways, so this is the language level of my cat though it is obvious from the picture that she’s trying to improve her skills and catch up on her readings!

Nice!
Hope her dreams come true!

But, did the others understand its Alphabet?!

Well, she doesn’t know many other cats but everyone who has taken care of her has managed to understand what she wants. She has her ways…

What a great photo!
