Decoded: What my cat's meows actually mean

My cat Luna has developed an entire vocabulary and honestly, I'm fluent now. The sharp 'mew!' at 3 AM? That's 'human, I've forgotten where my food bowl is despite eating from it twice daily for 3 years.' The long, dramatic 'meooooow' while staring at nothing? 'I'm having an existential crisis about that dust particle.' My favorite is the tiny 'mew' when she walks into a room - that's just 'announcing my presence because I'm the main character.' The demanding 'MEW MEW MEW' at the treat cabinet needs no translation. And that soft trill when she sees me after work? That's pure 'I missed you but I'll never admit it.' Other pet parents get it - we're all just full-time translators for tiny furry dictators who've somehow convinced us they're in charge. Spoiler: they absolutely are. #CatParent #PetLife #CatCommunication #Pets #Cats
