As I am relatively new to being a servant I am still trying to decipher the cat language... I've noticed Her Majesty 'chirps' in the morning as she stares at me as I sleep... (I wake up pretty quickly....now).
I'm wondering if anyone can direct me to a good website or book that can help me with Cat Language. It's obvious to me that each different noise means something but i'd like to communicate with them as well... Do i sound like a nut???
Maybe she wants breakfast, stat! Just wait till they start nibbling your toes

I agree... I feed her before my eyes open properly each morning! LOL How quickly she has trained me!
I also wish I could understand their language.

I believe we have all established ourselves as crazy cat ladies or gentlemen here.

It's funny... I always considered myself as a 'dog' person... Until now! I couldn't live without a Ragdoll I adore them so much!
Definitely a Crazy Cat woman! and I wouldn't have it any other way

We're not crazy, we're, uh, "feline inclined"...

I treated my Ragdoll like a dog, and he is just as intelligent as one! I try to feed him in an unpredictable manner so he will not beg for food, so far he doesn't even try. Thank goodness, I get to sleep in
I trained him to sit, lay down, wait, and look at me on command too. He will wait while I put his food dish down, then when I say "ok" he is allowed to eat. Didn't take him long to learn this either! I almost have him scratching his posts on command too, this is by far the coolest breed of cat in my opinion

Wow! I had no idea cats would demean themselves enough to obey. I guess that does prove how smart cats are. They can ALL probably do all that stuff.

I don't think mine would ever consider obeying me... or anyone else! They are far too superiour to obey! LOL
I think it's funny how they get their message across without trying.
I have been trying to figure out the same thing, and i think that so far I've been somewhat sucessful;
chirp-chirp="I'm happy/surprised to see you!!"
meOOOOOWW="i'm hungry/I can't find my toy
mmmrrrrrrrrrrrrr= I'm annoyed--stop clipping my nails/giving me a bath/cleaning my bum
prrrrrrrrrr="I'm SO happy!!"
meow-ow?="May I please have some?"
MEOW="come play with me now!"
growlll= I only do this at my toys, to show them how tough I am!!!
