That cat who gets closer and closer cracks me up every time. The full video of it is much better, the cat gets gradually closer every time the guy leans out with the camera. Cats can be spooky little beggars

Most people will tell you that cats are stupid because of their small brain. They may not learn words like a dog but they are extremely observant. Mine has learned how I behave and will take action based on it. He knows what I like and don't like. He will go out of his way to make me crazy if he figures there's not enough attention coming his way, but he will also come and wake me up every morning at the same time.
Complicated little creatures and while not smart, they are very intuitive and able to learn.

Maybe because I spend too much with them, but out cats definitely recognize a lot of "codes" - words or sounds, often associated with certain pitches and intonations. Don't ask me how it all started but if I make chicken sounds, the cats know that it's time for wet food. I get their attention at once, all 8 of them. My wife couldn't believe it at first, though she thought it was hilarious. But it actually proved very useful once when one of them bolted through the door. Of course, I looked like an idiot making chicken noises on the porch but the cat who was hiding underneath a car came back at once. I also have a certain specific pitch/intonation that I use to call one of our cat to play on the sofa. She gets into play mode almost instantly. I need to find that video of our cat Arthur at the vet's office opening a jar w/ his teeth to get to the treats. They're very clever little beings.

And, truth be told, following yet another "pee incident" with one of dogs, after almost 6 months of training (and training classes), if you ask me, cats catch on things way quicker than dogs. I still have to go outside with her very single time - if I just let her out, she just stands there. She does understand verbal command, and obey a lot of the time. But you still need to always keep and eye. And at times, there's just nothing registering... Adding to the fun, the older dog we've rescued can't be left out of sight either as he has a tendency to mark things (including Christmas presents... but that's another story). Unless there is some sort of behavioural problem, cats are a lot easier to handle. So long as you accept that the house is theirs and they can do whatever they want and go wherever they wish.

With both dogs & cats, ya have to have patience and at least be willing to try to understand them and how best to relate to them (with you still in charge of course), therefore being able to better enjoy them. It was an eye opener for me to watch a number of videos in which that 'Dog Whisperer' guy worked with some of the most hopeless looking situations involving people's animals. As in your cases, Rain and Ampfixer, my feline buddy (and our lab/chow mix) both recognize several words and vocal inflections. AND, We pretty much realize all kinds of animals are very keen to our body language in remarkably small detail.

Corbin's pretty interactive when he wants to get his point across. He gets a lot funnier when he gets pissed off though (someday I'll have to video tape that too!).
