Thread: Baby Talk

    Baby Talk

    I read that animals (pets) like it better when we talk normal (like somebody really asked them!) instead of baby talk. I talk baby talk to Buddy all the time and I can't help it! What do you think?

    ??? News to me. My poor darlings seem to cope okay with being baby-talked at constantly.
    I'm sometimes asked "Why do you spend so much of your time and money talking about kindness to animals when there is so much cruelty to men?" I answer: "I am working at the roots." -George T. Angell, reformer (1823-1909)

    I talk to my cats normally all the time. I talk to them like they are real people and they always respond. Either that or I meow at them

    I talk to them both ways but when I yell at them it's just the way you'd yell at your kids. They do like the baby talk though.

    I asked Edwina about this and she said..."You mean I am suppose to respond?!?!?!?"

    My Tango loves the baby talk, I mean I guess he does. I have always talked to him like that and he is still my shadow. I can't help myself either.
