Does your cat call you?

Absolutely! Sierra calls me quite frequently anytime she wants my immediate attention!

Char does on a regular basis. He is such a spoiled brat but I love him!

marsh definitely has distinctive calls, and one of his is: I WANT ATTENTION, COME AND PLAY WITH ME! ... yeah, i know this whine anywhere

Chesty often calls--but we're never sure who he's calling. He usually does it when he leaves the room we're in. It just occurred to me that maybe he's calling us to follow, but our original theory is that he had a friend in his first home that he's looking for now. He would walk around the house, calling curiously but also a little sadly, as he pawed at all the doors. He was adopted from the SPCA where we got him, then returned--they don't know why, or any of his history. Anyway, he called a LOT when we first got him, but that has decreased as he's become more comfortable with us. His call sounds so un-catlike that we think he may have had a dog friend before--he almost sounds like he's trying to bark or whine like a dog!

He's the most talkative of my three cats. He often gives a little rolling chirp when he jumps up on the bed or the couch, or when he approaches one of the others, hoping to play. Eva meows when I'm in the kitchen and taking too long to fix their dinner: "Me first!" Ziv hardly talks at all, except when he's in the car. Then he just cries.

Yes!!! Limerick sits in the middle of my living room and does this questioning type meow. It's really loud too (I have a 1 bedroom apartment, so it's not very big). I know this might sound wierd, but once in a while it sounds like he says "mommy" Or that my be my mind playing tricks on me. haha

Princess and Patsy each have many different meows to get their points across. When one "calls" me I will either go see what they want or jsut ask them what they need. Usually if it's important they will make sure to get their points across by a very demanding yell and walking me right to what ever they want.

Even my ferals will come get me when they what something. Most of the time they will knock on the doors or bang on the walls to get my attention. If they're really desperate one of them will jump up and hang from the window screen to get my attention. Sometimes it scares the heck out of me when it's late at night and I see eyes staring in the window.

Smokey--my mom's cat--would say mama plain as anything. Even people who didn't have cats or weren't "biased" would blink in surprise when they heard it. Besides using it as a call for her, we could look at him and ask, "Who's baby are you?" and he'd sit right up and cheerfully let out a distinct "MAMA".

Goodness yes they call for me! Especially my Siamese, Minuet, and boy is she LOUD!!!

Willow did that a lot last night. We moved to a new apartment, and she just kept wandering around. The place is all one level and only one bedroom (our old place had two bedroom and two stories) but she kept thinking she was lost or something. By the time it was morning (and time for me to wake up) she figured everything out and wanted to come to bed with me.

They do this all the time!!! Rosie is soooo vocal! Lately she's been waking me up about three times a night because I have to respond to her calling otherwise she doesn't stop! My other two cats were not vocal at all until Rosie started and now I have like a choir here....they never stop but I love it

My mom thinks Limerick has seperation anxiety. When I leave he sits at the window and cries and meows for labout 10 mins then he goes and plays or sleeps or whatever.

On the telephone, usually at about 2 pm to make sure I'm not taking a nap!

WOOHOO This makes me feel a lot better .. my fiance totally thinks i am a loony toon thinking that the cats are calling for me.

Expecially Geo he has a tendancy to when he falls or isn't able to do something he wanted to then he will do a weird whiny almost like a cat chasing a fly chirpy meow likes hes crying. If i ask him if he is okay he will come running and stop meowing, but he does that even if he is in the Same room as i am. In my mind it is sort of like a little kid who fell on their bum and crys for their mom even though they really aren't hurt just stunned. Delilah used to come running when he was a baby to make sure her little baby was okay( she totally adopted him when we got him), now she is mad at him cause he wants to play and swat at her and she is * sticks nose in the air and puts on my snobish voice " to refined to play like some common kitty how lude*LOL*.

Luna WAILS until someone calls his name then he comes running like he was totally lost.

Shadow will wrreeoww really soft like mama hey mama where are yah WOOHOO.. then she will be looking for me and hunt my butt down and i will end up with a kitty throw on my chest *LOL* She totally snuggles in and sort of throws her arm over me like she is hugging me. She's my baby!!
