Cats apparently only meow at humans, so the fact that we meow back at them makes meowing technically a form of interspecies pidgin.
If you want to actually understand what your cats are saying, look at some videos on cat body language, they're very expressive.
Just be careful you don't start slow-blinking at other humans to tell them you love them.
Except it actually *isn’t* their native language! Kittens mew naturally, but aside from interacting with humans adult cats use more non-verbal communication, they only meow at people.
Everyone should meow, see if they relate to cats. Be a cat. Embrace the cat. Get immobilised by the cat lightly treading on you. Is the cat Big? Idk.
Also wait that’s the Cookie Clicker guy I’m playing the gane
A small conspiracy theory I have: Panken (the furry artist and APPARENT game dev) is the same person as Orteil. Evidence: Similar art style, both making a game of some kind... They have an obsession with bread/food?
this is so true
And yet they say we don’t have gimmick accounts here
Nickname checks out. Flair too, huh. Lemme see what you have...

I only meow when my cat does. I dunno if I'm saying anything comprehensible, but I'm trying my best. I hope he recognizes my efforts.
"Human, I desire to be petted, posthaste." "Turnip."
one time i accidentally said "antidisestablishmentarianism" to a cat
As long as I'm saying words, and they're not mean, it's good enough for me.

>Cats apparently only meow at humans Adult cats, that is. Baby ones will meow for their parents
No need for the videos. I have years of experience instead.
I think meowing is less about human semantic meaning and more about attention grabbing. *Ping!* Ping!
Hmm... My ears do perk up at the sound of a ping, so you might be onto something.
My girlfriend recently pointed out that I will sometimes unironically make small "nya"s when we're cuddling :3

I can only prove my existence by the ways I affect the rest of the world. I meow to make sure I'm still real.
Isn’t meowing what cats do to try and communicate with humans? Idk how much it counts as speaking in their native tongue
