We have an incredibly verbal cat. He will respond to his name. He will announce himself in every single room he enters. He will continue to announce himself until he is acknowledged.

mine does this non-verbally; he'll wait at the entrance to a room and wait for you to acknowledge him either through eye contact or voice and then; and only then; he'll enter the room and usually with a tiny squeak of approval.

I love polite cats

I wish I knew teaching a cat to speak was forbidden knowledge. She wakes me up at night just to let me know she claimed 80% of the bed, or the bottom of the bowl is visible.

Saying hi while passing each other is pretty cool though.

aww my cat will announce herself if you enter the room she's in, until you acknowledge her. she's also tiny and when she meows it sounds like a creaky door lmao

Fry likes to sit in the bathroom and scream at my wife immediately after she turns the shower off. He will continue to do so until she opens the curtain and he can get in and play in the water. Fry does not do this to anyone else and in fact let's you know his immense disappointment when you open the shower curtain and you are not my wife.
