That cat in the picture under the covers looks exactly like my Snappy.
You could say he talks as well. Every morning around 4 am he wants me
to lift the screen on the window and let him go out. he doesnt
scream. If he did I would make him leave the room and lock the door.
He meeps until I cant stand it anymore and I open the screen. So that
is kinda talking.
