Meow, Meow
No, that's not Persia. It's my mother talking to Persia.
Having never really been around a cat before she doesn't quite know what to make of my chatty cat. That's okay; Persia doesn't know what to make of my mom, either. When Persia starts talking, which is quite often, Mom says "Meow" at her. It's the funniest thing! She says it with no inflection. Anyone remember the old Bob Newhart TV shows where at the end of the credits the MTM (rather than MGM) kitten would meow? Instead of the kitten meowing (as it did for the Mary Tyler Moore show) Newhart's voice would say "meow". It's like that. Funny to watch. Maybe one of these days they'll get more comfortable with each other. Mom just doesn't know what to make of this creature who reaches over and taps me on my nose from time to time Jill |

Anyone remember the old Bob Newhart TV shows where at the end of the credits the MTM (rather than MGM) kitten would meow? I remember it from St. Elsewhere (in the 80s) - the kitten was wearing green scrubs and surgical mask. Instead of the kitten meowing (as it did for the Mary Tyler Moore show) Newhart's voice would say "meow". It's like that. Funny to watch. Or, more recently, that YouTube video where the guy took a clip of two cats mrrrping at each other, and did a voiceover of a conversation they might have been having? At one point, one of the cats says, "Someone's coming. Act like a cat!" One cat starts squirming cutely, while the other one starts going "Meow. Meow. Meow" in this totally bored, affectless, and very human voice. Maybe you should make a video of your mom doing this. I'm not saying to put it on YouTube though! -- Joyce ^..^ (To email me, remove the X's from my user name.) |

If I want to know if Harri is down in the basement I stand at the top of the basement stairs and meow at her. If she's down there she'll back at me. |

If Mom holds a hand out she'll sniff it, that's about it. Mom moves very slowly and hestitantly; Persia doesn't know what to make of her. At least she's not winding around her legs. Tripping her would be a very bad thing. Jill |
