I love video footage, I learn so much watching these interactions again! In Billi’s mind she was probably being incredibly clear that her food bowl was empty, all done, and she didn’t want to wait for more later. If I had understood sooner it probably wouldn’t have progressed 😹
I always talk about how long I give Billi before interjecting, I also find it interesting that she might be waiting for me too. She took a few laps before repeating her request!



Billi is a female domestic shorthair, she's 14 years old, her favorite word is mad.
Inspiration for learning to “speak” with buttons from Hunger4Words (check her out on IG).

Sometimes when she takes a moment to compute your sentences I feel like she's translating to cat language in her head, like when humans try to remember high school Spanish on vacation.

When bilingual you sometimes have to take a second to translate a word from one language to another or you forget how to communicate what you want in the proper language so you keep saying close in hopes they understand..I think we've all been there where we repeatedly ask for something and get upset when the other person doesn't understand before we ask in another way, it happens to kids more often (which it's assumed pets have roughly the same intelligence and attitude as children, they can get impatient and get very upset from it)

While that might be humanizing her a bit too much it is DEEPLY fascinating to see the levels of understanding and communication Billy is capable of. Sure, it took a bunch of behavioral training for her to understand the buttons, but that's the key - she has truly understood them and willingly uses them to communicate. Still baffles me every time i watch videos on this channel, just how much that comparatively tiny cat brain of hers is capable of doing :)

Watching Billi has changed some of the ways that I interact with my cat. If he is upset or vague about what he wants, I tell him that I didn't see what he needed, and ask him to show me again. I also found that he has a similar move to Billi's walk in a circle as she plans out her button pressing. I used to think that was him losing interest, now I know he is formulating his message (and he gets frustrated when he is interrupted while he does that).

I also wait now for the "thinking circles"! Now if only I could figure out what my cat is saying after dinner each night. It's always the same series of sounds, always after a particular type of food Is given. We can't figure out if its "thanks mom that's yummy", or "why do you keep feeding me this crappy food" lol

1. I think LATER MAD was a warning: "If you do not respond to my request, I am in danger of becoming ANGRY." It's kind of cool that she would think and attempt to express this thought (if my interpretation is correct). 2. What happened in the long pause after she says FOOD the first time? Were you busy on your phone or something? 3. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I think Talking Pets use LOVE YOU as a catch-all for "please," "thank you," and "sorry," in addition to its plain meaning.

Sometimes nonverbal is looking at the food bowl, and sometimes it's scratching an arm.

Using language really gives insight into what she is thinking. Billi is obviously not a “dumb animal”. She is intelligent.

I am thinking of all the years and years we have been telling each other how not smart many animals are. I am sure that have done the same back at us. We so often miss non verbals from them. I feel I could have given my previous animals better lives if I had been more attuned to the small non verbals they give .

I could read the nonverbal communication from my cat better than I could humans. We communicated really well after 12 years. Some friends were over and they picked up my cat Fred and said “can I put your cat in the microwave “ I said “whatever “ Them “what don’t you care?” Me “Fred can take care of him self” Them “Okayyyyyy” they carried him to the kitchen, Fred was all happy, they opened the microwave. Me “Fred they are trying to hurt you” Fred tore up their arm as he jumped away. He didn’t run through he just moseyed away after hitting the ground. So much of communication is non verbal. Body language, tone…

@@ecospider5 I'm sorry, but what friends joke about putting your cat in the microwave, and then actually mimic doing it to see what your cat will do.... I hope you got better friends, that's some douchebag level shit. I wouldn't let them in my house again.

Sure if you responded the exact same way each time they pressed a certain button. But our emotions make that hard to do.

I mean yeah, if you look at it from their perspective. When we’re feeding pets or babies, what do we say when they take the last bite? “All done!” Or “All gone!” When we say it, we’re talking about the act of eating being complete, but the cat probably hasn’t made that connection yet and just thinks that it’s said when the bowl is empty

NO Way ! this is crazy. OMG . Talk about opening a pandora box - if we can open up lines of clear communication like this - how richer our lives would be . But we would have to be prepared to hear how they really feel about their lives with us . Regardless this is amazing - first time seeing this channel - can only imaginge it took hundreds of hours of training between Billi and their owner .

Billi needs to do what my Kitlyn does...sit on Mom's hands so she stops using the phone, especially when she's trying to have a conversation. (I often want to do that with my adult daughter when I'm trying to have a conversation with her, too. I get it.)

I was thinking about this too - there was a pause after Billi hit food, so think Kendra might have been in her phone? I was thinking about how long that pause felt as I watched the video, and how log it might feel to Billi. It’s given me something to think about for my future Interaction with both humans and cats..

I think it's hard for cats to grasp what humans can and can't do. If we can turn lights on and off, why can't we turn the rain on and off? If we can turn televisions on and off, why can't we turn barking off? It must seem very perplexing to them.
