.....insist on making silly noises to us cats?  It's quite funny but at
the same time humiliating to hear such primative baby talk.

*sigh* If only hoomins could possess the higher intelligence to
communicate with us, then they wouldn't have to make such silly noises
in their attempts to talk to us.

My hoomin likes to say, "Missy, are you a preeeeeeeeeeeeety girl?
Who's my preeeety-witty girl?"  Ugh!  it's horrible.

Anyone else have hoomins who make such hideous noises?

Oooo, yessss, my slave does that.  In fact...  she has the
audasi..audase...audaci...  the temerity to call me "Barney Butthead"
(Hoomin note: it fits him).  She tells the kitten, Marley, that he has
a Yuuummy Tuuummy, disgusting.

And when that hateful Li'l Bit is out, LB (we call her b*tch cat, the
hoomin has no idea) will rowl and cry, and the hoomin will say, "oooh,
bitsy, wha's sa madder..."

You should hear the hoomin with the other kittens, it's worse.  The
worst part is she won't scritch on me when them is out of the room...
Ugh, Indeed!

This hoomin has adopted the term "kittenpussums" from Diane (who used
to post here before she died in that terrible car accident).

Unfortunately, I can't even say kittenpussums right.  It inevitably
degenerates into "kiwwenpushums" (I sometimes call Betty "pushums" and
"pushy girl", and this is where this comes from), followed by made-up
words and babble that make even less sense. :)

Mischief, I've found that Mommy talking nonsense usually means nice things
are going to happen.  If she is talking to us we get food and treats and ice
in our water and opened doors and extra scritches.  She can babble all she
wants as far as I'm concerned, as long as its to us.

Its even worse when Meowmie babbles with a mixture of English and Chinese
words, thrown in with a few sounds that she thinks a cat makes. It makes my
ears twitch.

The fat wench calls me "The Coney One," "Piney Cone," and says that I have
"Coney Toes."  She also baby talks to us all.  She calls SGT Huey "Huey Wuey
Wuey," Merlin "Merly Man," and Tanada "TannaShoes."  She calls Qui Gun Kit
"Pitter Patter," and Speedy the d-thing  "Speedy Weeders," and "Poofy."
This is one sick hoomin we have here.  I think she needs a brain transplant.

I like it when my Mommy talks to me. She sings to me, too.  And
sometimes, every once in awhile, Grandma comes and she and Mommy YELL
at each other!  That's REALLY INTERESTING!

We love talking baby talk to Nocturne.  She knows damn well we're
patronizing her and gets this magnificently cranky expression.

It's far more fun than Smokey, who doesn't care if we call him sh!thead
as long as he can call himself well-fed :)

Vino endures a lot of verbal abuse from us too, but he doesn't care.
He knows he's perfect and we can't possibly mean it.  The other day,
Dennis caught me giving Vino the finger.  Vino didn't care but Dennis
gave me a look like he finally realized he's married to a total
nutcase!  In my defense, I'm not a nutcase but had caught Vino giving
me the ear, so I had to retaliate with the finger.  I'm not so good at
giving the ear...;-)
