Here's something amusing. God's creatures are truly amazing! Just when you thought you know your pet well, they surprise you.
In Russia, a black cat was caught by its owners (and on video) barking like a dog. He's perched on top of a window barking at something below. At first I thought it was some sort of trick until the animal turned to face the camera, and you can almost read a "whoops, busted!" moment in its eyes as he turned back into mewing as cats "should" do.
I wonder how this cat learned this. Maybe it got tired of having the neighbor's dog bark at it, that he thought, "Well, if you can't beat them, join them, but be coy."
Having played a feline recently on stage, well, I learn you can certainly teach an old cat new tricks. I researched and found out that cats can actually make quite a variety of sounds, depending on how they feel.
According to PawsOnline.info, cats can snarl when angry, yowl when afraid, mew when wanting attention, purr when he wants you to approach, and make clicking sounds when it's ready to kill. They even have actual wav files of cats making different sounds.
Interesting, eh? Now why this cat would bark aside from pure "because-I-can" mischief, I have no idea. Have fun watching.
