it doesnt seem like they should be able to form those sounds, the way their mouths are shaped.

talking cats? like on ripleys believe it or not?
either way.. i found this..

Now the other animals, like the cat that you asked.
Think about the parrot, it talks? Maybe we can say
yes, if we teach a parrot (or similar bird) he will
say
words and even phrases. Does it understand the meaning
of the words he "talks" or we talk to it?
People that lives with them, or study them say that
it understands simple things related to its life.
As far as talking in a similar way to men, parrots
and similar birds are the only ones that can imitate
the pronounciation of some words.
Other birds sing and some sing very beautifully. Many
learn different melodies.
And communication?
Surely the animals can communicate and do so in
different ways. Some bees, or ants and other insects
communicate by odors or scents.
Almost every kind of animal expels sounds to
communicate with others. Even the dolphins and whales.
And the cat? Or the dog?
They dont have voices the way we have, still they
communicate between themselves and between us.
Barking and meowing have many different sounds
that differ following if dogs or cats wish to transmit
joy, sadness, fear, angry and other emotions.
These (and other) animals are still poorly studied,
but we know that the sounds (or voices)
mostly communicate emotions. They do that with sounds
and some gesture of its bodies. For example for the
cat i can
give you a "vocabulary" (common to all cats born
any place):
moving the tail: depending the speed, means fear or/
anger;
licking the lips with the tongue: i am hungry!
spanking a little one (kitty) with a paw: go away!
closing the eyes very slowly in front of you: i
love you! (you can answer the same way)
purring: it the universal way of happiness and love
(mostly the times)
and so on...

but on your question.. dunno..

I don't know...and people think I am crazy until they hear it with their own ears, but I have a cat that says "oh no"..he says it every time someone else does..I thought it was just coincidence until one night we were watching the news and something bad had happened and both my mom and I said "oh noo" at the same time, and the cat looked up and said it too! He really is cute.
I think it is all how their mouths and tongues are made...

I don't know how they do it, but I had a cat named Precious that said "mmm nooo" and another time, and I'm not lying, she said "hellooo"! I'm not the only one that heard it either!
