Do you talk to your cats?

[DJFyrewolf36]

PJ's Mom started a thread over on the dog side asking if people said bye to thier pups when they leave the house. Do you all do that with your kitties? I do, I usally tell Remus "Be good, don't cause too much trouble" If he is being clingy (He sometimes gets into moods lol) I tell him "If I could take you to work(or wherever) trust me I would cause I like you better than most people!"

I actually do like talking to Remus. He seems attentive when I talk to him like a normal person. I get into baby talk, he just walks away lol!

[nibblets]

Of course I do! Sometimes she is the only one who will listen to me :D
She talks to me too!

[slick]

Only ALL the time. :) I can't leave for work in the morning without kissing Max and Speckles on the forehead and telling them "I'll be back later. I've got to go and make a buck".

We also have great conversations when I get home. I tell them all about my day and about the goings-on at Pet Talk. :D

[Uabassoon]

Of course! I always like to let them know how long I'm going to be gone for, then I give them a kiss and tell them goodbye.

[catnapper]

Goodness yes! I talk to them, and I'm sure they ignore me like everyone else does :rolleyes: ;) :p :rolleyes:

[kt_luvs_kitties]

I have to, they expect it. I love it, so do they. And when I worked at the vet, and I couldnt come home on my lunch break to check on them, I used to sneak into surgery if noone was in there, and call and talk to them on the answering machine. This is how the convo went " hannahhhhhhhh,puffffffffffff,stashhhhhhh, how are you guys doing. your mommy loves you and cant make it home today to cuddle. I wish I could, i miss you all so much. I hope you are being good and stay out of trouble. I love you *kiss kiss kiss* bye bye, see you tonight" and if my hubby pressed the machine before I got to it, he would hear it and just smirk and roll his eyes... whatever:p they like it:D

[Laura's Babies]

Of COARSE!! That is why I love them so! They never laugh at me when I make a mistake, never ask why I am not in bed yet (not anymore anyway) and I talk to them ALL day and after the lights are out and I am in bed at night. I always tell them how much I love them, how pretty they are, how good they look and I tell Samantha "We FINALLY did it, didn't we girl?? You are M-I-N-E!!!"
I even talked to Amy on the phone from the boat last trip, Kevlin said she rubbed the phone with her face when she heard my voice too!!

[sirrahbed]

Of course I do! Like, almost all the time! I just talk about everything:) I never leave the house or return without a big fuss. Leaving - I always tell them to be good, watch the house and put one of them "in charge." I tell them how sweet and wonderful they are, tell them to quit picking on their brother or sister, etc, ask them what is wrong, what do they want, how they are doing, etc...:D :D They seem to expect it!!

[christa]

OF COURSE!!! I talk to Josie all the time. I work at home, so she's the only one I have to talk to through the day ;)

My husband laughs at me when he hears me conversing with Josie.

But I've heard him upstairs talking to her too!

[Craftlady]

Yep, I hold conversations with all three furry kids. :)

[cubby31682]

I talk to Cubby, but by the end of the converstaion I am talking to the back side of him.

When I am leaving for work I tell him that I love him and that I will see him in how ever many hours. When ever I tell him he is a good boy he walks right over and bites me. Then I let him know he is bad and he lays down and starts purring. :confused: :rolleyes:

[manda_moo87]

Yup, 24/7!

[Catsnclay]

Phhhh! Of course I talk to them, and they all answer me back, too!! :eek: :eek:

There are times on the weekend when I actually talk to my husband and he will turn to me and say "Oh, were you talking to ME???" :rolleyes: :eek: :D

When we leave, we will "assign" one of them to be in charge while we are gone.

Yoshi loves his "Lipstick Kisses" right on the forehead when I get home!! :p He looks quite silly, a white face with big red lip prints on his forehead......but he is mommy's baby (always will be, too :) )

Only cat people will understand this!! :D

[rg_girlca]

Yup, every morning when I leave for work, I tell them, "Bye guys, be good. Mommy won't be long. Stay out of trouble and i'll see you soon. Love ya all."
Then when I get home, I go and see each one, say hi, give them a kiss and scritchies.
There are many times my hubby will say, "What did you say?" and I say, "I'm not talking to you, i'm talking to Buddy," or which ever one is with me at the time.:)

[catlady1945]

Yes, and they answer back.

[kimlovescats]

Oh goodness, YES!!!! They are my family, I talk to them constantly!!! They know everything there is to know about me, and they STILL love me!!!:eek: :eek: :D

[aki]

Oh yes! Both the dog and the cat get luvin' before I can leave for work! Then when I get home, they are the first ones to greet me at the door!

[jenluckenbach]

YES

We hold grand conversations! :D:D

I say hello when I come home, good bye when I leave. I ask then how they are today. You name it!

[Killearn Kitties]

Of course! I give them kisses and tell them to be good. I ask about their day when I come home, they rarely tell me what they have been doing though. :rolleyes: I tell them the big news on Pet Talk and ask them to keep their paws crossed if any of their pet friends need a bit of help.

[catcrazylady]

I talk so much to all my kitties that hubby never answers when I'm talking to him. He assumes I'm still cat chatting! I talk to each and everyone of them all the time. Gosh, no wonder my jaws hurt!!:D

[angiebarney]

I have a little book called 'CAT LOVERS' Quotations for fans of our feline friends. and one is
""A.L. ROWse is the only person I know who used to ring up one of his cats from the united States. They apparently had lively exchanges"" Roy Strong quoted in The TImes (London) 5th Nov 1983

I talk to the Gingercat all the time. My husband talks to the Gingercat when he thinks no one is listening.....except the Gingercat!

[QueenScoopalot]

Life would be very dull if we didn't talk with our kitties! Chip nevers shuts up, so we carry on some very animated conversations all day LOL! His favorite games are to race me up the stairs (he cheats I tell him). Even if I'm halfway up the stairs, and Chips down at the bottom still, I'll start running up them, and Chip goes flying by chortling as he makes it up before me! He's so Siamese! Another favorite game is when I'm trying to make the bed. Chip loves it when I throw the covers over him and ask "WHERE'S CHIP"?? :confused: He gurgles, and meows like a nut that he is, and comes racing out so we can do it again, and again! :D A kitten in a catsuit! :)

[lizzielou742]

All the time!! :D

[karyn674]

I do, I do, I do!

Lulu is the best listener ever, I tell her everything, good news, bad, problems just everything that goes on in my life. Even what she thinks of someone or situation. Or who's wrong or right over a fight between me and daddy. But I think she supports me ;0)

[mina'smomma]

Is there anyone who doesn't? I kiss Mina goodbye every morning.

[jazzzytina]

I'm laughing about Cubby - that is too funny.

I do talk to my cats, all the time! I'm always asking Sasha, "Are YOU my baby?"

I used to have 2 dogs, and I would call them from work and talk to them through the answering machine. I would say, "Are you being good girls? Sit! Stay! Good dogs!" LOL

[catmandu]

All,the time,as even,if your Cat,does not understandthe words,they know the your love,in your voice!
