Vocal cats are the best what do you mean kitty can say hello like a human child? She says prrp to let you know where she is because she can't say psst, and the closest thing to psst in cat language is in fact a grievous insult. She goes "hmm?" when you call her. She almost says let's go when she calls you for food. If she could say t or g she would say let's go perfectly. She says I love you. I mean it's closer to maiyowoo but it's close enough for an animal that doesn't have human or bird vocal cords.

Vocal cats man they're so good and perfect and I love them!

#Pipette only says hello but it's the most pathetic “helloooo?” I've ever heard #Pipette comes from pateet #Which is Afrikaans for pathetic one #I call him basically anything starting with a p #He responds to all of it #He's not my cat he's a stray that I would adopt if it weren't for the fact that he's encroaching on kitty's territory #Yes my cat is called kitty that's my mom's fault she only called her that and now it's all she responds to #Well that and kitten my cat and booboops #Her original name was actually the Afrikaans for mulberry #Which is moerbei #And bytjie for short which translates to little bee #But she like actively dramatically enacts ignoring you when you use that name #Which is usually just my brother who gave her that name #Mulberry is her deeadname and she stands on business when you call her that
