Answer 1

Hahaha, I know exactly what you mean - I lived with an aunt who had a cat that was unbelievably vocal. It would get into these matches with you - seriously, it would come, stare up at you and almost bellow a "meow" up at you until you replied in kind. And then, just like your's, he'd keep repeating it after you repeated his, and back and forth FOR EVER. lol. We got so used to it, the only way to calm him down was "speaking" to him - when he got older, whenever he'd freak out at something or another, it was just completely natural to "meow
at him a few times - even if, say, company were over. Middle of a conversation with our priest one time at lunch, I remember, he came flying into the room spazzing about something or another, and my Aunt, very casually, starting meowing at him in the middle of her chat with her priest until she realized HE had no idea what was going on and probably thought her crazy/rude for interjecting cat sounds every other word into her talk...Anyway. Yes. I love vocal cats. I hope you and yours have many talkative years together! :)

Answer 2

My husband and I got a Sable Burmese, a retired breeder, from a friend of ours. We usually isolate new cats in a cage in our bedroom for a month before they get the run of the house. It's just a good idea in case the cat is incubating some bug. This cat would meow every 2 seconds for hours. Only it was a "Neow", "Neow", "Neow". It drove me nuts so I slept on the couch. (My husband can sleep through anything). Week 2 she was still "Neowing" so I gave her a kitty bed. She'd just had a blanket before, so I thought I'd try the bed, and after that she was quiet as a mouse. She still had her moments, but most of the noise stopped. The cage she was in was 3' wide by 3' deep by 3' tall, so she wasn't too cramped. She picked my husband as her favorite human and when she wasn't in his lap she was in his chair. He called her his "lap lump". She developed arthritis and lost her teeth as she got older, but her spirit never failed. She was a great old girl.

Answer 3

Absolutely. Books have been written on "cat language". They are the most vocal of creatures with about 60 different variations of sounds that they make. I talk to mine all the time and actually have become quite fluent in "catese". Kid you not. Of course, you have to talk in cat because they can't answer in English. Example: When jumping up on your lap, they usually say "Purttttt?" That is a greeting. Rough translation, "Hi, I'm here!" What is even more interesting, each breed has it's own "accent". Forestgl is right on the money!!!

Answer 4

Yea, my cats always seem to carry on conversations with me. They also learn to modulate their vocalizations to imitate me (and I do it on purpose just to give them food for thought). I always thought tabbies were quiet cats but mine carries on like she's a politician and the male cat is a siamese so he's always loud and vocal. The female even asks a question and her "meow" goes up at the end (meow?) and she looks at me like she's waiting for an answer. No matter what anyone says, cats can communicate quite well with their humans if the human is paying attention and as open minded to learning as the cat is.

Answer 5

I've had several, all of them were siamese.

Siamese cats are known as 'talkers'... they not only sound a lot like a human child, but they meow in response to attention. I wouldn't even have to start the 'talk', I could just look at my cat and smile and he would meow at me. If I talked to him after that, he would continue talking back to me as long as I kept talking. He was darling. He was always in my lap or lying in my bed with me... a most precious cat.

Answer 6

To tell you the truth, my male cat 2 yrs old, he does talk he sits and meows to me all the time. He actually says momma, I thought it was just me and my vet asked me how long had he been doing that, so I do have someone else who has heard it, besides my hubby. But it is very nice that you and your cat have a special bond and theres nothing like having your cat talk to you. Have a great time with him.

Answer 7

some cats are very talkative particularly any oriental breed like siamese or burmese. but that is a good thing because the more vocal they are the more you will get to know the different meow and instantly know what he wants.

Answer 8

congradulations, you can talk cat, lol. I tought my step son to talk with our cats, they would not play with him if he did not. He was still young and rough with them. He can now call them in from woods with his own meows, though to me he doesn't sound much like a cat.
I am an outdoorsman, and have learned to "talk" to a lot of differant animals. All it takes is listening, and learning to mimic them.

Answer 9

Yeah, I have 2 males that I refer to regularly as "town criers". They come in the house and chat with me non stop. Sometimes it is cuz they want my attention and just want me to pet them...other times they are letting me know they are hungry and could I please fill their food dish..my tuxedo kitty does this just to be affectionate...if I stop petting him he will start sassing me a bit...it's kind of funny actually...although I wonder if I'm making matters any better by talking back to him.

Answer 10

I have a cat that calls my husbands name, when she is hungry, or wants something, she sounds just like she is saying "Alan"! She will call him over & over untill my husband goes to her. Once when we had people over, they heard the cat & thought it was a little kid calling my husband.
