That's because they ARE masters of the place

[@MegaRazorback]

Dogs have masters, cats have slaves...As the owner of 3 cats i know all too well that i must bow to what ever they want lest i find a "present" on my bed, in my shoes or on my couch because cats WILL leave them in your house if they think you're ignoring them and if they don't get what they want. 😐

It is interesting that they've added the feature to talk to animals and also made Minsc appear, but then completely omitted to include Boo the Miniature Giant Space Hamster as a creature you can converse with.

[@bluishwolf]

You don't need to speak with animals to talk to Boo as miniature giant space hamsters are both intelligent and telepathic. Boo just doesn't want to talk to you.

[@ramezhachicho1777]

I can understand why lol .. I mean .. They could either go two directions. The first being that Boo is just a hamster .. which would upset half the fans. Or make Boo ACTUALLY some sort of legendary space hamster. Which would upset the other half of the fans XD

If you talk to Minsc with speak with animals, then mention Boo, your character will have a dialogue option where (s)he notices that (s)he still doesn't understand Boo.

[@unknown123455]

@TerakJK Your videos are great and you've found some of the rarest conversations I've seen in the game thus far. Please keep uploading the videos and hunting down rare beasts for conversation purposes. A late game companion has a very specific pet hamster that MUST be found and talked to. No other video has uploaded a conversation with it. You'd be the first on KZbin to get it. To find him, go to the Counting House- in ACT 3 and solve a puzzle to get to the underground entrance to the sewers. Find the Stone-Lord after a 2nd puzzle and then use a non-lethal attack on the companion. A barbarian class makes some of this quest easier. If it can't be done, keep on with your current quests and come back to it on your 2nd playthrough.

[@thomasjoychild4962]

Sadly, speak with animals does not work on that particular hamster. You can ask the hamster's companion about it and he'll say basically that the hamster, given what his companion claims about him, is no mere animal.

You can let the cat out and it will just run away without hurting anyone, in the current version of the game. Even though it makes threats of revenge it just leaves. For the dinosaur, it wasn't being abused by the real circus folk, it was being abused by the doppelgangeds who snuck into the circus and pretended to be part of the show. Once you get rid of the bad guys (which happens shortly after this conversation), it is happy to stay with its real friends.
