Nobody believes my cats reaction to this word, so i filmed it to prove it

And they say cats don't understand

[@lorriefinley3129]

Dogs come when you call them. Cats take a message and get back to us. Tommy proves it.😸

[@barbh1]

They have their people call your people.

[@TheCalico72]

Yes, he was super annoyed. It could've ended badly for you. I wouldn't have blamed him 🤣

[@noelsalisbury7448]

It's the same thing when you say your sons or daughters name so much in a time envelope - they're just bound to get a little short with you. It's - normal.

[@marionmarino1616]

You were ANNOYING him!

[@MrGriff305]

Cats learn. This is not news 😅

[@vic.smittie.5668]

I had a male cat like that, years ago. He looked exactly like this one, and was called "Tiger." He would be outside somewhere, walking on the high walls, or whatever. When I shouted the word "pakkie", which means sachet or packet of food in my language, he would run like Hussain Bolt to come and get it. He loved it!

[@nannettebennett2317]

Tommy is easily annoyed when there's no chicken

[@djg5950]

Probably 50% of the time he calls Tommy it's for chicken or a meal. The other 50% it's to make a video. Tommy is confused so answers every call in hope.

What amazes me is how incredibly smart Tommy is. His responses to his “dad” are so spot on. Tommy “gets it!”

[@cicicave1279]

@Daathiel My cat almost did the same thing to me once. Actually one time, I think he literally pounced at the laser itself. He still allows me to play with him with it though (esp. on days when he's not outside much). Thankfully, he doesn't wander too far off and always comes back where we can actually see him. But some cats are goofballs tbh. I've even had my cat pounce-attack my leg for no reason. Or sometimes he'll do that when he's upset for doing something he's not supposed to be doing. I think cats understand us more than we realize but it's if they choose to listen and how our tones are too.

[@AnnikenKivlok1233]

I think it's chicken

[@user-yx9sj2yt9q]

I live in Mexico. I have a cat that reminds me of Tommy. He is totally feral, doesn't use a litter box, he just goes outside somewhere. Bernie is a proficient hunter and kills anything that moves. Try waking up at 3am to a live bird in your bed, flapping around under the covers, what a mess. He will eat an entire bird, bones, beak and feathers, pretty gross but I love him all the same.

[@darlenejimmerson7587]

Tommy is absolutely Beautiful and hilarious ❤❤❤❤

[@lancecorporal9894]

What a great cat and friend! My wife and I owned a cat that freaked people out because she acted like your Tommy, you could call her name (Katie) and she would come trotting up from wherever she was and sit down like "Well!?" She could also tap the refrigerator door with a paw to let you know she was hungry and would tap a window to let you know she wanted to sit on the sill and look out (she hated the outside). We sure do miss her. Thanks for sharing Tommy.

[@mariag.8242]

All cats believe they are completely hidden if their face is covered. It's like they think "If I can't see you then you can't see me!" 😻

[@grokeffer6226]

Tommy deserves two chickens. 😺❤🍗🍗

[@skyking1328]

My 14 year old Tom cat says CLEARLY "HELLO" in the morning, at feed time or when entering the room. After many years he has learned this is his communications with Dad. TO him it means, dad is here to feed me, or pet me. or give me treats. When asked" where is Minnie ?" (our adopted miniature female kitten-Minnie) He CLEARLY says, "I don't know." He only started this in the last four years with me talking to him all the time. . Smart enough to know this is a communication with Dad. Rest of the time it is jibberish talk.

Tommy is so cute! My cats know the following words.....their names and they come most of the time I call them, dinner, snack, wait a minute, bedtime, and I love you.

[@Sebastianmaz615]

Tommy's such a great feline. 😻😍

[@LC-lw4vy]

I trained my cats to come when called. Made life so much easier. The tone of voice was also a factor. They knew when I was being a little sh#t. “Bear, bear, bear ,bear, BEAR!” then he finally looks I wave and go “HI!” The look I would get was fantastic! Then it’s “Bear, come here” and bang there he is. I came back from a car trip once, opened the door, one of the cats started going the wrong way, I said “Georgie! No. This way”. She turned around and proceeded me to the door. A watching neighbour was like “wtf!” Having them trained actually allowed them a lot of freedom. It was great all around.

[@user-yy2uf8ei3v]

Will I be sued if I say that Tommat was not perfectly hidden ? I really love this little guy and his dad !

[@SilntObsvr]

It's been scientifically demonstrated that cats recognize the names we give them -- they just mostly don't care unless there's something they want (like food) at stake. We've got a three month old kitten who already knows her name -- she'll look at me if I call her -- but she only comes when called if she hears a can being opened (smart kitty)...

[@hollyr.1139]

I kept waiting for you to say a word that wasn't his name. My cats, too, react to their names plus a handful of other words, notably "fish." They also find lost objects that fell on the floor if I ask them to. Cats are cool (when they want to be).

[@dennis2966]

Same here. All three of my cats automatically respond to their names. Each one knows its own name. And if I ask them where one of the other cats is, they'll look around the room. So I was expecting some special word that this cat would react to.

[@czechmate6916]

Tommy is hilarious 😹😻🥰♥️

[@susandevoe6002]

I love it when they think they're hiding & their tail is still sticking out!! Ha, ha, ha!! Sometimes I go & very gently sort of pull a couple of tiny tugs near the end of their tail -- just to let them know I very well know where they are!!! Gets a big indignant meow from them & for sure a big laugh from me!! And my cats hv the same reaction to the word "hungry." I just say it & no matter where they are in the room, or what they're doing, in a teeny weeny split second those 2 little heads just swivel right around to look at me, in unison!! They GET IT!!!!! They also react to "eat" & "food" -- and "treat" too ofc, that's a real biggie as well, which brings them out of the woodwork in an instant, from whatever room they're in, or from a deep sleep, especially if I also shake the treat bag!! OMG!! Just like asking a kid if they want some candy!! GEEZ, DO YOU EVEN NEED TO ASK, MOM???

[@Natashahoneypot]

You have a very responcuve cat. Mine would ignore me on purpose.

[@zero_bs_tolerance8646]

Nice to see you.

[@tamaramorton8812]

That was funny. Thanks for the laughs or smiles, to be more accurate. Looking forward to more videos. Thanks.

[@marciap2961]

My cat loves tuna water (drained from a can of tuna) as much as Tommy loves chicken. Whenever my boy hears the can opener, he starts meowing so loudly I am afraid the neighbours will think I'm tormenting him. Love ya, Tommy! 😻

[@djg5950]

Funny thing was my cat loved the water from tuna, shrimp, or canned fish but wouldn't eat the tuna. Frozen shrimp was one of her favorite human food. When I cooked them she stood by me and meowed constantly until I cooked, peeled and broke up 2 or 3 of the large ones for her. (I buy raw, unpeeled, uncooked extra large frozen ones for shrimp cocktail). Didn't matter how hungry I was she got hers before I could eat because she drove me crazy with her impatience.

[@shawnkrumm7445]

Absolutely! Tommy reminds me of my Ginger who's been gone a long time. No matter where she was in the house, she'd come flying to me within seconds. One day, she was walking across a big room, and every time I said her name, she froze in place for a couple seconds. Poor baby, I had her freeze several times, because I couldn't believe what I was seeing. My dear fur ball 💖

[@Yungbeck]

Great episode of "TOMMY". I believe the title could be "The Tail Was Out" or perhaps "If You Call Me Again..." Thanks Tommy I love you

It would be nice to see you in the video with Tommy from time to time so we can see what Tommy sees when he looks at you! 😉😉

[@victoriahayden2961]

I love how he grumbles an answer! 🥰

[@elkabong6429]

Love me some Tommy! My kitty, BC (RIP) was a dog trapped in a cat's body: He came when he was called by name, he played fetch (a lot) and he always was at the door to greet me whenever I had been out, even to get the newspaper or some take out. Also, whenever people came by, he came out from wherever he was and always said hello and hung out with us.

[@BrittMFH]

Well of course Tommy knows his name. All my cats do. And they know a lot of other words, too. Talk to them, and they'll learn.

[@barbh1]

Tommy is a clever and a handsome lad. Does he eat only chicken?

[@djg5950]

I'm sure that he gets other actual cat food as just chicken wouldn't be a healthy enough diet for a cat. He probably gets a daily portion of chicken, too, to keep him happy.

[@wendyjepson4668]
