The really interesting one thing happening in my house is recently Natasha has started to mimic Baby.
Natasha and her brother we have had 7-8 years or so now.
She is a total Diva and has some interesting vocalizations. We can pretty much tell what she wants based on her location and how she "talks". Different vocalizations even in the same location mean different things.
So about 2 years ago we got Wanda, aka Baby. She was a kitten that was stuck under the hood of the neighbors GF's car for 3 hours.
Baby is a real chatterbox and has a very distinct high pitched tone. It's a very fast paced series of vocalizations.
Last few months Natasha has started copying Baby because my wife spoils Baby and Natasha has realized she gets attention faster by pretending to be Baby.
She will only mimic baby from spots in the house where we can't actually see her to figure out which one it is before getting up to check.
Cats are fascinating manipulative creatures.
A bit unsettling when you realize you are sharing your home with perfect Apex predator murder machines who only let you live because you are too big for them to take on.
