does your cat ever "call' you?

[marysmerrycats]

just now, Im in the den, and Emma was in the kitchen, and she meows, in a way that i know she is calling out to me! usually she will continue it til I go there, but this time thankfully she came to me, she wants to be petted, and have her chin and head scratched! she is really a character sometimes!

Only when it's dinner time....

[Catsnclay]

Lucky does that to me all the time! If I leave the room and he doesn't realize it, he will howl like he is lost! I have to call for him to follow my voice so he knows where I'm at. Too funny!

Yoshi also does this sometimes in the middle of the night, he will wake up, not see anyone and start to cry. Naturally I get up and go get him.

[rosethecopycat]

Snowy calls for me, and he calls for his favorite toy.

I can hear the difference in his voice.

[Edwina's Secretary]

Oh yes! Sometimes when I go in the basement she will sit at the top of the stairs and give out a cry that is heartbreaking! She stops when I go to the bottom of the stairs and she can see me. She does the same sometimes when I go upstairs. I'll hear her calling and look over the banister to see her just sitting there...looking up at me.

And, mind you, Edwina goes up and down the stairs all the time!

[LoudLou]

Yes. The Beans have several ways to call us.... Daddy's Princess Mocha Bean will talk to him in this high squeaky delicate voice...This MELTS Daddy's heart!.

... And Garbonzo Bean has learned that heart breaking- DROP EVERYTHING- YOWL that makes Mommy & Daddy stop everything they are doing and come running to see what's wrong..... usually t's nothing more than He can see the bottom of his food dish!

LOL

Tubby does this ALL the time, and is most persistent right after we go to bed. He goes to the basement and just yowls like he has lost his best buddy or something. He really sounds like he's in pain or something, so Terry always asks me "What is wrong with him?" I just because I know I'll go to see what's wrong with him. I'll get to the top of the stairs and there he'll be sitting, right at the bottom of the stairs looking up at me ever so innocently, wondering why I'm looking at him.

Every night we go to bed, and every night Tubby yowls like that. Now I just call to him and he comes. Sometimes I have to call a couple of times before he quiets down. Sometimes I think he can't hear me because he's yowling so loud.

I don't know, but somewhere along the line I heard that cats do this as they get older....so now Peanut has started too. She'll do it in the morning while I'm in the bathroom getting ready, and Terry is already upstairs working. She'll sit at the bottom of the stairs (what is it with the stair thing?) and start meowing. She wants somebody to walk up the stairs so she can go tearing up alongside them - which is one of her favorite things to do. So when I hear her and I'm in the bathroom, I come out, go up the stairs. I get about half way up and she goes tearing all the way up. I go back to the bathroom and she goes to work with her daddy.

Yes Mary, my Lexie is very different to any other cat i have ever owned, she has so many different miaows, noises, little chirps, its so cute, if she wants me or wants out, she makes this big howling type noise, she is forever chatting to me, i used to think something was wrong with her all the time, till i realised she was just being chatty, Ash is non-vocal, its a new experience to me, but i love all her little noises, she has so many different ones, it will take a little time for me to figure them all out.

[Kona & Oreo's mom]

Oh, yes! Kona calls me when I have gone outside into the backyard, but she is not allowed to come out with me. I can hear the certain *yowl*, and she'll stop once I answer her. I wonder if she does that when I'm not home to answer?

[Sara luvs her Tinky]

YES!!!!
Sometimes when Tinky and Jupiter get crazy at night Eric will lock them out of the bedroom and after a few hours Tinky will sit at the door and meow.. meow..meow..meow. Then when I open the door she is happy.

eddie comes to the front door about one hour before i get home and cries......when i make the corner to walk up i yell, "who's your daddy?"

he always knows the RIGHT answer, "me..YOUUUUU".

the bad times?

saturday morning, 0700 hours.....'mrrrttt?'

"mrrrrrrrrrtttttt???????"

"mrrrrrtttttttttt-crash!!!!!!"
(sound of falling articles around the house....)

[NoahsMommy]

Ever since Noah was a little fuzz ball he'd call out to me if he couldn't see me. (My sweet boy!!! *tummy flutters*) He does it still and it melts my heart...its almost sounds like he's saying, "Mommy??????????".

[Prairie Purrs]

Kacey yowls from another room every once in awhile. I'll ask him what's the matter, which usually brings him running. Of course, he once figured out how to use the telephone, so he's pretty good at communicating!

[BastetsMum]

Bastet does a whiney meow at me. Thats the way she calls me.

[Soledad]

All. The. Time.

In the rare case that Boo hasn't followed me around the whole house and has somehow ended up in a room without me, he will give out a little questioning meow or chirp.
