4. my old tom, Spike

may he rest in peace, was an indoor/outdoor cat,
we lived in an isolated wooded area, he spent most days lazing on the porch,
in for meals, and sleeping with the kids at night... one day he and i were home and i see him sitting staring at the front door .. so i asked "do you want to go out?"
and he turned to look at me and said 'OWT' clear as day 😳
i looked at him like in those pics above and let him out

13. Funny I have this cat magnet that meows and my cat totally ignores that meow

She recognizes real vs fake.

17. Same thing with inanimate objects.

We have a cat planter--a lifesize cat that resembles our deceased feline, and a planter attached to it. Patches walks past and never looks at it. She can tell it's plaster, I guess.

8. Grammatically incorrect and with a terrible accent

cats can tell that you're meowing as a second language and would totally deport you for stealing their jobs.

better housing. All three of my cats were once neighbor's cats.

14. Great pictures. Expressions are priceless. Unfortunately when I answer back with a meow, I'm ignored

15. I have two.

They are not related: Hastur The Unspeakable is a Savannah Cat, and Empress Shadowskiddyboomboom The Merciless is a shorthair domestic.
Each has their own distinct accent. Hastur sounds appropriately Egyptian, whilst Shadow sounds vaguely Hungarian, like me. No diphthongs, with the accent on the first syllable. Thus, "Meow" becomes "Maah".
