Cat InSight

Long time, no see. I hope you all had a great start in 2010. I didn’t have too much time to write here lately. I’m glad to hear some of you miss the cat blog carnivals we used to host. It’s possible they come back soon with new adventures from our lovely cats.

For today, I have a special post featuring my Russian Blue cat (known as The Cat) and The Bag from a birthday present I got from a friend earlier today. Here are the photos:

Cute, isn’t it? Well, if you want to sleep the night after you get a present wrapped in such a cat-suitable paper bag, don’t let the bag and the cat in the same room over night. Believe me, paper bags can make a terrible noise when provoked by playful cats.

Taking cats are rather cartoon characters than real life pets. At least this is the first thought that comes to my mind when I hear the words. Nevertheless, I have to admit that I have a dialog with my cat, in which she knows how to tell me what she wants in a very suggestive manner. Like all talking cats, my cat has a fabulous body language and her voice is an efficient instrument of expressing her feelings.

Talking Cats or Meowing Humans?

When I think back to the days when I was trying to tame the beast, when I attempted the clicker training until she refused the treats and treated me with her back side, I feel like smiling. Why? Because two years later, instead of having a trained, talking cat, we ended up by her having a talking cat language master . Isn’t this funny? I know the meaning of so many meows of her, that I could write a dictionary (if only I knew how to spell cattish).

A city cat would have different sounds than a countryside cat. An indoor cat would meow like “please, open that door for me quicker!”, while a night cat would climb on the house roof and cry out loud in the night, like a rudimentary cat telegraph, transmitting messages over the hills.

There’s one common point of all taking cats: a cat in heat. Cats in heat would always have the same call for tomcats which can drive you crazy and sleepless. Of course, cat neutering has a heavy word in this conversation, as it may neutralize cat aggressive behavior especially in male cats.
