Haha I have watched this a million times, I would say they were real... cats can be so vocal sometimes. I say Hellooooo the way the cat does on that to them sometimes just in case they might copy me  :rofl:

I'm sure the one having his back scratched is real, and the black and white sittting in the doorway.

But I'm gullible!

I've watched these before, and there's one where the cat is in a corner and quite obviously scared.  Generally I find them funny, but that particular one is upsetting.

Straight up -  our old cat Flynn (one of The Lost Boys bless him) used to say "Idon'know...." if you looked at him and said "wot you bin' up to...?"   He was such a fab lad, a right clown.  He enjoyed life 150% and was always happy to share his exuberance.

One of mine used to say "hello" and "thank you" when we didn't have a cat flap and had to open the door for him to go in and out. I don't think he feels the need to "talk" to us now he can do it himself, though! None of the others have ever really made noises that sound like human words.

Ollie does the 'hello' noise... and Benji, my visitor, does the 'mama' one sometimes.

The last one doesn't look at all happy. :(

I think that one could be real too.
