Chibi says "Out" when she wants out in the morning.  Although I must
admit the "t" is a bit hard to hear.

Skeeter used to stand by the front door, look at me, and say, "Me out?"

And Dante doesn't say "Now?"--  he says "NYOW-WOW?"  ;)

Heh. This is probably what Caliban is saying every morning when he waits
for his breakfast. I sit at the computer and he sits on the dining table
and stares at my back and keeps up a running commentary, but every time
I turn around and look at him, he shuts up and looks at me with that
'What? I didn't say anything' look on his face. And when  I turn back to
the computer, he goes off again: Meow meep peep peep meep eep peep eep
meow! (he has a very fluty, tiny voice).

That sounds like that cat video that someone (sorry, forgot who) posted
last week, of the "talking" cat:

http://www.jumpingpixels.com/talkingcat.html

I've never had a cat that just keeps up a steady patter of meeps and
eeps like that.

Oh, whoops, I just remembered - that was you, wasn't it? D'oh!! :)

Does Caliban sound like that cat?

No, I didn't post it. Caliban has an even tinier voice than that, and
the funny thing is he hardly opens his mouth when he makes these sounds,
so it's like he is really trying to fool me into thinking it's not him,
it's just some eerie high-pitched sound coming from the ether - or maybe
from the Mothership...

That's a new one - a kitty ventriloquist! :)

I could've *sworn* that was you posting the talking cat link... I
thought I remembered you saying that Caliban found it disturbing. But
now I can't find the post - it seems to be gone from my ISP's news
server. (Which is odd, because much older posts are still there.)

Well, I guess it's pointless for someone with a memory like mine to
be arguing with someone who knows damn well what she posted and didn't
post! :)

LOL. I remember writing that Caliban was disturbed by the sound from a
video, but I don't think it was this one. It would seem my memory is
about as good as yours. ;o)

It could change.  Stinky's voice did get deeper with age.  When I got
him, he had a very high, light voice, higher than tiny Mimi's -- she
sounded like a feline Tallulah Bankhead. ;)

Well, I sincerely hope it doesn't change. Frank started out with a tiny
little voice, too, but it gradually developed into a deep throaty yowl.
It got even deeper when he developed his hyperthyroidism, and his
enlarged thyroid gland pressed on his vocal chords.

Nina is also talkative when she's investigating something new.  She
keeps up a running commentary in this very cute, high pitched mew. It's
probably what led to her somewhat strange nickname of "Baby Bird." But
I swear, that's exactly what she sounds like--the hungry peeping of a
baby bird. =o)
