We had a cat for 16 years. I finally realized he had different “meows” for different things. Just to call attention, he said something like “aaaah.” If he wanted out, it was more like “ouuu.” But when he was in the kitchen, asking my wife to feed him, it sounded like “Moooommmm.”
Cats are telepathic. They use oral commands with kittens while they are learning and, of course, humans are not smart enough to understand telepathic commands. ;-)
Not true! I looked out of our front window one day when my cat was meowing up s storm. What did I see, two other cats outside! No my cat is not a kitten, she’s 6 years old.
The first Egyptian to ask a cat its name was answered with “Meow” and so the ancient word for cat was Meow (true); since then centuries/millennia have passed and cats are still wondering why humans are so impolite…

but adult cats do hiss and growl at each other, right? it’s been so long since I last had more than one cat at the same time

Adult cats don’t meow to each other because Meow means Feed Me.

Russian Ice Slides were based on the amount of Vodka consumed prior to walking on the ice.

We have a dog that will only shake with his left foot; isn’t that a true southpaw?

That about the cats is a myth. We’ve got four adult cats and they routinely meow at one another. I thought only Wikipedia published myths.

They’ve been watching kangaroo authors again.

Most Australian Aborigines are also left handed… It must be something in the water.

The only important part of the ‘word’ is ME…the rest is just their accent.

I love the certainty of that one fact: “Some” kangaroo species are “almost” always left-handed…. What?

In French, Roller Coasters are called “Montagnes Russes” which translates in English by “Russian Mountains”

They probably realize humans don’t have time to learn a new language.

How do they know that about the kangaroos? Do they have them throw a ball or writer their name?

My cat used to defecate in the house if he was mad at me.
