Eddie is a real talker.

I think it is sweet except when he did it at 3:30 in the morning.
Don't know why.
He stood at the bottom of the stairs and
murped loud and long!
That's our Eddie!
(Possibly he was trapped on the wrong side of HH -
and was calling out for a safe passage pass??)

First Kat, Fred (RB; ) was raised from KittenHood by Casey (RB; ) - a German Shepherd.

Casey was taught to "speak" on command for a treat - which she enjoyed doing. Only problem was she had a problem with her Volume Control! It took at least 3 "speaks" before she got it toned down to less than a loud shout - and then got her treat.

That wasn't lost on lil Fred...
Hmmmm... 3 shouts anna Dawg getz a snack... Gotta try dat...

ONLY Kat I ever saw that *sounded* like a dog in a Kat's Costume!
When Fred wanted something (usually a *peek* in the fridge) ~
she'd imitate Casey's "Beg" stance (up on her haunches, front paws bent down at the wrist),
and rip out with 3 sharp mee-YIP Kat imitations of the only animal "voice" she knew - Casey's Bark!

We had the only Barking Kat in town!
