Feline linguistics

[steuard]

When I want our cats to stop doing something, I find I often yell "Nej!" instead of "No!"

Apparently, I'm convinced on some deep level that cats speak Swedish. That's a shame, since "nej" is one of the only Swedish words I know. Maybe they'll tutor me someday.

My cats only respond to "Meow" and "Hiss!" The spoken word has no effect whatsoever.
