@kolya we need audio
@feliks haha, gladly next time. should be pretty easy as both our cats immediately start chattering as soon as someone's at the door to my room. I don't know why.
@kolya are they doing the meowing? do you know that sound cats make when they see big insects?
@feliks not meowing. sounds more like the Predator, but in cute. they do the same when they see birds through the window.

@kolya nice yes same sound. i love it. so cats do this out of frustration? if they can't reach their prey? is it this sound?

@feliks yes, pretty much the same sounds. I don't know if it's frustration. they're certainly not frustrated when they talk to us this way.

@kolya so maybe something more like this? :3

The two talking cats

Stina and Mossy usually fight instead of communicate, so this was an odd moment. They kept "talking" for about one hour, constantly.Thanks for all the positi...

@feliks it varies a lot but generally there isn't much purring or cooing. it's closer to the first video, but not quite. they're not agitated, but calm and focussed. and they "reply" when spoken to.
@feliks I think they believe they are talking like we do. to them our speech must sound like a bunch of gibberish too. maybe they imitate that. I just don't know what triggers it in this situation, when someone's at the door. maybe they're ordering food from us, lol
@kolya maybe they talk in morse or some dialect
@feliks yes, I sure would like to decipher what they say. although I doubt there's much in their little heads lol
@kolya that's what a whale might think about us humans lol
@feliks yep and they wouldn't be wrong from their perspective. I know precious little about how to catch krill and navigate the seas. same way my cats know everything they need to know in order to cat. so it's all good.
