I love when you touch a cat and they are not expecting it and they go ‘brrp?’
That’s my fave.
Omg yes
Ah, yes, the "question" meow. Love that one.
The "excuse you"? I love that.
yes, that one is pretty awesome
that's called purring
That mother cat was just like:
"YO GIVE ME THAT"

" NO YOU DONT UNDERSTAND HE IS LITERALLY YELLING FOR ME *GIVEMEMYFUCKINGBABY* "
So literally they're making baby noises when trying to talk to humans lolol
and we do the same to them
And what were you expecting? Them to talk like humans?🤦🏻♂️
@@azhanali7270 it's not even entertaining, so tragic
The same thing goes for the dogs. The dogs bark, the wolves never. The dogs emit some puppies noises that wolves don't do because its effective to communicate with humans which have a noise-based communication.
And the noises of babies are pretty the same among the mammals, and we are receptives to the sound of babies, probably because grow children take so much time for our lifespan.

My cat used to do that! She would stand in front of the fridge & meow but put a "k" on the end!! She only did it when she was in front of the fridge, knowing her cat milk came from there! 🐈

Keith Price they just think we are stupid

+Claudia Jean
Not really, no. It's more along the lines of that they evolved a "cute noise" that they use during their adolescence to get their mother's attention. They keep that ability into adulthood, and since cute things catch human attention rather easily, they learn to make that cute noise to get our attention when they want things from us.
Basically, they treat us like we're their parents because in terms of their ability to understand complex relationships, that's the closest thing that they have to our relationship with them.
Noticed that babies are decidedly cute? That's because our brains attach us to them (making us think more positively of them, thus making us more likely to keep them safe) by making qualities common to infants and small children stand out in a way that we've dubbed being "cute." Cats imitate this to the best of their ability because it makes us more likely to give them things like food and companionship, both things that make living longer more likely.
+Solaire of Astora Then why do I find a lot of babies to not be cute but actually ugly? Some are cute to me and some ugly.
Solaire of Astora baby humans are ugly! I have never seen one that I think is cute. But I love all the baby animals! They are the cutest!
We had a kid at out secondary school who would do a meow so good that he was known as the cat kid. It was my second day of year 9 and everyone was talking about him. He'd always be walking on his own or meowing to year 11s. I left school 3 years later and I only ever heard him meow I never heard him spoke. It was a really good impression of a cat, can't lie. I wonder what he's doing amidst the corona virus lockdown
I'll give you another one. I go to a trade college and I seen him on the last lesson of our first day back after summer and he walked into our 2nd year college class. Now this was a second year class and it was the kids first day. We was all working in our note books 30mins into the lesson and he walked in. This is more common in college as your rooms change all the time. Anyways he walked into the wrong class, it happens and you just laugh it off and say wrong room buddy but he just kept his head down sat at the nearest seat and started taking his books out.
Now on the first day you learn what group your in and your told you'll be together except maybe for English and Maths (if you failed them).
So after giggling when he walked in we were confused after a few seconds and were like "hey buddy I don't think your supposed to be here what room are you supposed to be in" he just ignored us and finished taking his books out then looked up at us and told us he wasn't.
now I was abit stoned (you know how college is) so I just start laughing and everyone is just giving each other "what the fuck??" looks.
I'm looking at him and I'm sure I recognise him but cant put my finger on where from. Our college tutor is more sympathetic them some of us and really tries and give him a helping hand and take him to exactly where he needs to go.
Our tutor escorts him there then comes back. We crack on.
Ten minutes later hes back. Somehow our tutor took him to the wrong room. But he's sure he's meant to be in our room
We send him away to the teachers lounge to ask for any of the teachers he's had that morning.
He comes back and just waits at the door looking in like he wants to come in then looking away when people look at him. We tell him to come in sit down and pull out his timetable your given on the first day
We quickly find out he is in the right room weird huh? He was meant to be in the room 2 hours ago for his last lesson. I didnt think it was possible. Not a single person on earth could behave more baked and burnt out then this kid but he really doesn't Blaze if you seen him from afar you'd attribute him to be a book worm. I don't know to this day how the hell he fucked up as profoundly as he did. Hes not got a bad bone in his body I really wish him the best he's going to need it. He doesn't meow any more he doesn't purr. I don't know if he's been weened off or something but the cat noises are no more. No more misto kitty, no more universal adoration from everyone over his super realistic cat noises just a simple mortal like us all. I thought one day he mightve profited off of his ability. In the mean time it looks like his little kitten hands are going to be worked to the claw because it's plastering for that mon
That's all folks

1:07 "Give that back."
Later in my cat's life, she started holding prolonged conversations with me. Several meows of different tones strung together without pausing. Then she'd stop, I'd answer with something arbitrary like "is that right?" And she'd continue. Between that and learning to stick her tongue out at people in a very ornery human-like manner, she was incredibly bizarre and scarily smart.
Alan Rizkallah sounds like an awesome baby
My cat does the exact same thing! He's 6 now, and i can make full 'conversation' with him, too adorable. He'll come in, start chatting for a couple of minutes, i'll ask him: would you like this or this? And he will answer with another 4-5 minutes of meowing😂💕
my cat does this too! Its so cute
awww
Good for you, you have been domesticated by a cat.
I had a cat that was not vocal at all. Then a second cat came into the home that was really vocal. My first cat saw that this meow got things like food or an open door, he started getting vocal. They do observe, learn and change behaviours. Clever kitties!
That's basically the same with my cats. I got my black cat when she was newborn and she stopped being vocal after a few months of age. She mainly communicates though biting and body language, oddly enough. When we got our kitten back in May, we found that he's insanely vocal. She's started chirruping more often and has since become more playful and more relaxed. I still wish I could get a few meows out of her more often (she has such a soft, lovely meow when it happens), but I doubt it will ever occur. Interesting how a cat with a different personality can shape another's!
Cats aren't dumb, and are less aloof than people think, but also aren't subservient like dogs will happily be.
Cats do learn how to manipulate their humans! It's nice to see them learn and adapt.
skywriting33 that’s the same here. I purposely got a second cat that was vocal because our first one was quiet. Now I have two vocal cats 🐈 🐈
skywriting33 I had a cat who hardly ever meowed but I was ten and smothered her with love lol
I notice they will observe you and often will yawn after you yawn. The contagious yawning isn't just a human thing lol.

My cat has never uttered one meow since we got her. Nothing. I assume she’s a mute, she doesn’t even purr. I’ve had to adapt and learn her every tiny body movement and language. She speaks with her eyes and tail.
My cat didn’t used to meow before too, but now I moved and all he does is meow and demand things. Sometimes they learn to meow and other times they don’t I guess.
Meanwhile my cat doesn’t miaow, it always looks like he’s about to miaow but there is no sound

I've read elsewhere that scientists propose housecats as living in an "extended kittenhood" where they retain many kitten behaviors (like meowing and being useless) because they trust they are provided for. It's pretty amazing that there are still so many mysteries surrounding the behavior of cats, given how intertwined they are with human culture globally. I bet there are similar mysteries about dogs and other domesticated animals.
UTAU53Yui I agree, it is pretty amazing how we don’t fully understand cat/dog behavior and language, yet they’ve been alongside us for thousands of years. All animals are pretty unique in the sense that they are all living organisms like us, yet we don’t truly understand what makes them “tick”.

camillo monaco It’s the equivalent of a dog whining
in another documentary they think that cats create that noise to fool bird and make it easier for them to hunt them 😋🦅 like a tricky sound for birds
Because they know It works
Cats are such beautiful complex and loving little critters.
I think they are beautiful, complex, intelligent and awesome creatures. But not very loving. They don't make good pets, coz they aren't pack animals. They are solo, and don't belong in a family. Raising then as part of family puts them in an awkward position as they instinctively don't really care for others, but having human companionship gets them free food and shelter..
Marquiz Milton that’s simply not true. Cats can be very loving and affectionate. There’s a vast amount of studies suggesting felines are a bonding animal.
Hmmm.. maybe. I am not saying that cats are incapable of bonding. I've raised a couple of cats myself and they were quite affectionate too. i was just saying that they don't bond the way dogs or goats or other pack animals do. it is best to keep an animal that lives in a pack as a pet because their brain is wired to respond to a family hierarchy.

My cat rarely makes a noise, and finally I think I've discovered why from this video.
When she was a kitten she was thrown out, and approached my friend for help (a year later he found out that it was his neighbours who had abandoned her in snowy weather). I agreed to take her into my home, but did not expect her to survive as she was starved and traumatised, her behaviour suggesting that she had been physically abused.
I now suppose that she did not learn a positive connection between making noise and getting attention, either nothing happened, or she was beaten. For weeks she did not need to make noises to attract me, I was fully attentive as she was in such a bad state.
Now, as I'm retired, we spend a lot of time together, and she is rarely more than a few metres away (due to the state she was in when she came to me, she has become a house cat, and rarely shows any interest in outside, unless I am there). Consequently, she usually uses physical methods of telling me she is there, nudging, head butting and patting me with her paw is enough for me to react. She also knocks on the window if I'm outside.
I think that in the 15 months I've had her, she has meowed less than ten times, chittered 3 or 4 times in my presence, and purred hardly ever. The only time that she was vocal was before she was spayed, so I know she can make noise.
I'm so glad to have seen this video, I'm not so worried about her lack of noise.
Philip Meers What kind behaviors make you think she was abused in the past? I’ve heard that cats getting startled easily is just a cat thing in general.
@@cultofgunter881 When I first took Katy into my house she was frightened of women, and would try to attack them if they approached her. My friend who found Katy has since discovered that the woman, who appears to have been the person who abandoned her, has a reputation for treating her children, and other pets that she has had, badly.
For a long time she was frightened if I walked close to her in shoes. She would try to hide. Yet if I was barefoot she did not react.
At first, I thought she was just a cat that was nervous when I moved too quickly, but it became obvious that it was more. I discussed it with the vet, who said that there was evidence she had been injured more than once in the previous couple of months, and that it was due to being hit, being kicked, or possibly having been thrown against something.
Philip Meers
Poor Katy :( , no pet should ever have to go through an owner experience like that.Glad to know that she’s in good hands now. I hope she’ll get over her trauma soon :)
@@cultofgunter881 Thank you. I'm pleased to say that my efforts have paid off. Katy trusts me, and likes spending time with me - sometimes too much, lol, it's like being the mother of a toddler, I've forgotten what privacy is!

I hear it now lol
I've had more than one cat that went "ack ack ack ack ack" when they saw birds.
My cat did that. She spent an entire Sunday afternoon sitting on the windowsill watching the birds, and by the end of the day developed the 'ack ack ack' noise (like a clicking almost) and always replicated it when birds were nearby.
Funny isn't it? They must have some sort of language. My cat also goes brup brup brup when she's about to be fed.
Mine does that too. Also when I use a laser pointer and beam it on the ceiling where it can't get it. Then it looks up at it and makes those sounds.
Cats do that to catch them. Copycat isn't just a random term. When a cat goes "ack ack ack", it is trying to chirp to make the bird let its guard down so it can kill it.
Don't look now, but I think your cat plans to shoot a death ray at it...XD
...Get it? When Martians Attack...ack-ack...ack ack...ack...I'm gonna go stand in the corner now.
this video is so wholesome ...

Kitten cries in hand
Mom: Ok I'll have him/her back now.
That's so cute 😍
Wow you didn't assume his gender amazing
@@zejdland not really. I could've said his since we usually refer to animals as male until specified, but I just decided to do it.
@@memyselfandi7782 would've been funnier if you just wrote him
@@calixhomies7965 I'm fine with that.

me: meows at random cat.
cat: ?
owner: ??????
me: sad face in the bushes.
same to me when meow to neighbor's cat
What.
I think both owner & cat are just freaked that there is strange person hiding in the bushes & meowing at them. 🤣
Should have said 'miaow' instead.
Can totally relate minus the bush part. xD
I love the sound of a cat's meow.
My cat woke up from her nap incredibly startled by the first meow in this video lol
American Cat: "Meow!"
British Cat: "It's pronounced M-I-A-O-W, actually."

The dog might be mans best friend, but the cats are the funniest pets.
Cats in the US: Meow
Cats in Britain: Miaow
Cats in Germany: Miau
Cats where I live: Just gimme some food or I'll end your life
I lost my baby boy, Mufasa, last October. I find it so comforting to know that he shared a language with only me. I could immediately know what he wanted, whether it be affection, food, or excitement, and it never occurred to me that someone else didn't understand. Miss you friend. ❤
I’m so sad for your loss... you know my cat is called simba :)
So not only do they think we are big, hairless versions of other cats, they also think we're slow and so they "meow" to make us pay attention to them. So we are big, dumb, and hairless cats to them. Interesting.
Supposedly this is why they sometimes leave us little dead "presents" at the doorstep; they think we're too stupid to hunt and kill prey
@@siliconebaby6270 They also sometimes will lick your hair. Cats have been shown to practice grooming of others, so if they think you are a cat, then they will try to "groom" you.
Silicone Baby I really hope that’s true. Because we are
@@siliconebaby6270 we should bring them a dead deer or pheasant and see what they do.
My cat thinks hes human lol
Imagine yr a biologist and your life's work is studying kittens and their miaows❤❤❤❤❤
But it's cute work :3

What about cats in countries that don't speak English?
Millennium old question has been answered!
"Why do cats meow?"
*VSAUCE MUSIC STARTS*
god i love this channel
"It's early morning"
*check clock*
*it's **01:46** am*
"Well, that's correct"
I generally get to wake up by one of my cats going to sleep on my face. Still, I do love them. Baka Neko...
Back to school alex
Hahahaha
Am I the only one who kept clicking the 01:46 thinking he was making a joke
I read this at 1:47am🤤😱😱😱
My most favorite cat died over the weekend, I'm so sad. He used to meow all the time and was so damn cute 😭😢
Sorry to hear that. The passing of a pet is extremely difficult to deal with. Hopefully, after some time, you'll be able to consider rescuing another cat, or two.
Oscar Leonardo May he rest in peace
I'm so so sooo sorry for you. I'm sure your kitty had a great kitty life with you
Don’t let that stop you from giving love and opening your home to a new cat, hopefully a rescue one.
So sorry for your loss. I have been there.
So cool!
I’ve noticed that when I meow back at my cat he responds with meow.
Cats are cool but sometimes at night they make a sound that sounds like a baby that's possessed.
Thats a mating sound...
That's when they're horny
ah yes the midnight yowl, proceeded by zoomies with the occasional banshee scream
That's why you need to get your pets spayed/neutered
I mean, my cat is spayed, but sometimes she’ll start yowling at night, and she won’t stop until someone gets up to talk to her. Then she’ll follow that person back to bed.
Me at 6 am just browsing some youtube. BBC: why do cats miaow? "I NEED TO KNOW!!"

Who spells meow "miaow" is the real question .
That is why I'm going through the comment section.
It sounds more like the actual sound :P
Dude it's miyav in Turkish. I am sure different cultures give different name to their sounds. For example Polish people should name it "miow" or something like that.
Also, the dogs doesn't make the sound "bark" in my opinion. It's not even close.
It is spelled differently in each language, as well as in many cultures, but the words are all onomatopoeias.
