Only a Pet Talker would understand .......but I talk to Rascal too.

Usually it is just to tell him how wonderful he is and that I love him to bits.

Sometimes when I call him from another room, so help me, he can say "WHAT?"

Someone posted that they gave their cats peanut butter. I was eating some on crackers and decided to offer him some. He sniffed it and I said, "don't you like it?" and I swear he said "NO"
and then walked away.

I think all of our pets know things about us that we would not share with a human friend. And I also think that they understand and give us full attention when we talk to them.
