Ah yes, my Mishi is the talker in this house. I wish my Cat-o-nese was better as I do have a hard time trying to figure out what he's saying. Talking back to him usually ends up with him leading me to his food bowl - he likes company when he eats. Sometimes he even mutters under his breath - which is really hilarious! I think he's usually grumbling that he's not too crazy about his food. Silly boy - I buy only the best for my fur kids.
