I can. I noticed this behavior:
Open the door- Long meow (in a calling tone), repeated
Feeding time- Very short quiet meow, then quick head shakes
Ouch/ Danger- Long or short meow increasing in volume, tail hair pointed out
Thank You- Short meow, steady volume
Affection- Purr
Aggravation- Back end of tail slamming on ground

This is the kind of question that is a pleasure to see on this board. Isn't is the most wonderful thing, observing our cats and learning to take ques from their behavior. The greatest fun my husband and I have is watching our pets interact. It has gotten to the point where we can almost substitute words for the looks and actions that go on between them.
Have you noticed the facial expressions they can get. It is absolutely hysterical sometimes. They look at you like, "Yeah, right". They get the softest, most angelic look on their faces when they want you to love them. They are so intelligent and wonderful. Well, I could go on, but it sure is nice to see a bunch of posters who feel like I do about their cats.

That is awesome! I can tell what my cat is trying to tell me but then again she is VERY verbal. Here lately she has been crying. Long high pitched meows. Because she is very attached to my Husband and he is gone. (Hes in the Army and left for the month) I can always tell when she is missing him because of her behavior. Knowing your pets behavior is always very helpful in many ways. GOOD FOR YOU!!!

I have a few more:
Big eyes when I'm laying on the couch: I want to sit on your lap, but I'll get there in my own time
Quick meows when I get home from work: thank god you're home already, I missed you!

I noticed that my cats have their own specific meows for different moods that they are experiencing. It is great to know what your cat is saying!

One of my cats is very quiet, but you can totally tell what she wants from her eyes and behavior. The other is very vocal, especially when it's time to change her litter! It's very, rrrrreow! rrrreao! Crazy kitten.

Wow!! Mine used to speak the very same language! :-) Seriously, cat's do have their own unique way of communicating with us, and with each individual in a family too! I find it facinating to watch and learn from them.

I think you really love your cat. Most people never pay close enough attention to pick up on the signals they send. They can communicate, but stupid people seem to need to hear words. I'll bet you think of your cat as a full person, just like you.
I liked that post. You must have one happy cat.
