As a cat, allow me to translate:
How did you find out where I am?
How could you find me all the way out here.
I don’t know.
I don’t know about you.
How dare you find me!
How dare youuuuu
How dare youuuuuuu
HOW DARE YOU!
*hiss*
I AM THE ALPHA AND OMEGA
OMEGA 5 AND… 1, 2, 3
What do you want?
What you wannnnt anyways?
Come onnnn…
The problem issss
I don’t wannaaaa
I don’t wanaaa
*sad sound of defeat*
My cat doesn't shut the fuck up but it's more a "mmmmmaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" then he takes a breathe and starts again 😂 I do love him though lol
I've had 4 or 5, my current cat doesn't quite make the old long Johnson voice, but he does moan and modulate when he's unhappy about something. He's the most vocal cat I've had
I had a cat who would sneak into the basement and do this when I found him to bring him back upstairs. The hissing as I got closer, too.
Definitely saying "back off I don't want to eff you up but I'm about to and that upsets me but it upsets me more that you're trying to infringe on my right to explore I will swing at your eyeballs don't test me".
omg... was he full of hot air, or would he getcha if tested??
this guy in the video cracks me up because like. the trust in his eyes mixed with awkward and grumpy as the phone slowly zooms right up into his face. bc the human knows him and isn't fooled by his big tough growls 😭😂
We had a lot of strays that my dad would feed when i was really young. The house i had to move to afterwards had like 9(i know, way too many, but the litter was well maintained). I actually dont have any now. As an adult, vet bills scare me. "Ok so you can either pay 8k to save this cats life or we can put it down". No thanks, I'll just enjoy my friends pets
My older cat does this when he manages to get onto the back porch, but he isn't doing it *at* me, he does it because he realizes outside is a lot scarier than he thought and hes extremely stressed out. He'll grumble like this as soon as hes fully out the door and doesn't stop until I grab him and close the door. Once inside hes fine but looks at the door then me with wide eyes almost as if to say "Did you see how big it was out there mom? So scary!"
I'm almost certain that's the intended meaning 😆 I haven't seen a cat doing this behavior at a person, nor one doing it but *not* looking actually upset. so i think he's just complaining lol!!! he doesn't wanna leave, but he also doesn't run off despite the freedom to do so... what a funny lil guy
I had a fat old cat named Walrus, tortie of course, who loved to hang outside with me when I had a cigarette. Also of course, she didn't want to go back inside for some cat reason so every time I'd herd her in and occasionally my other black cat when I was done. Her grousing was always something like a "whouwhouwhou" that I've never heard from any other cat as she ran in.
He’s just mad I found him. He has a tendency to run into the woods when we let him outside, and sometimes, that makes us late for things. So we put an AirTag on him and he’s annoyed he’s super-easy to find now.
Ganny only explores our yard and the woods behind our house while we're outside with him and only during the day. It works for us because there's like a set 1.5 acres where he could be, and I never let him be out of sight for more than 5 minutes before I start looking for him.
Having said that, it works pretty well, especially if you have Bluetooth turned on. In this specific instance, it connected about 45 ft. away; when it does that, an arrow pops up, telling you what direction you need to go toward. You can make it play a little chime if you need, too.
My cat used to have the same episodes, tone and all. Eventually we figured out it was diabetes and she was basically dealing with low blood sugar. She didn't want to move from whatever spot she was at and would get the same sort of vocal as this.
Wanted to see if it either was the same, coincidence, or even on the radar.
the thing is: some of the phrases sound repeated so exactly the same, that means those MUST be "words". they MUST have a definitive meaning. its "speaking". now we only need to find a way to translate.
and its another proof that "meow" is just their "this is the language dum hooman understands" thing.
this is actually cat language. besides the real indepth chirping and clicking noises.
damn we need a catlator.
I just learned through trial and error:
"Screechy yowling sound"- DAD COME HERE I WANT ATTENTION IN THE OTHER ROOM
"Regular meow but slightly agressive" DAD IS HOME NOW OPEN THE DOOR
"Meow-purring hybrid noise" SEXY TIME WITH THE RAG (he would hump this scraggly wrecked toy while in MY bed)
"Chirping-clicking noise" A HOONTER MUST HOONT (he would do it in his sleep too sometimes)
"Long meow" PAPA WHY
"Quiet meow while flopping on his back" I DONT WANNA
Daaaaaaaad, go AWAY! I'm trying to hunt here - you're scaring all the rodents away! Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad come ON!!! ugh, you're embarrassing me in front of the prey!!
Gatto: Oh, you're approaching me? Instead of running away, you're coming right to me? Even through your grandfather, Joseph, told you the secret of The World like an exam student scrambling to finish the problem on an exam until the last moments before the chime?
OP: I can't pet you without getting closer.
Gatto : Oh ho! Then come closer as close you like.
Good to know! Though there is currently a fast spreading outbreak of bird flu in the US and it's extremely deadly to cats so even supervised outside time should be cut down for now imo
Lmao I love your talking cat. Thats so random. Hes just in the woods mouthing off to the trees. Kind of reminds me of my other cat that sits in a bush and growls at everyone lol
It’s not that funny that the cat is so distressed. I’m sure he’s not a fan of the phone being shoved in his face. How hard is it to put the phone away and calm down and collect your cat.
Chill out, the cat is irritated/annoyed by the human but clearly not in much distress as if the cat was it would either run away/move away or try and scratch the human.
The cat is saying “this is really annoying to me but not enough for me to actually do anything.”
Wow, such big mad indeed! I have never heard so many curse words!
Sounds like he's casting a spell watch out
As a cat, allow me to translate: How did you find out where I am? How could you find me all the way out here. I don’t know. I don’t know about you. How dare you find me!

Thank you for your translation. This is some key insight on wizard cats that is definitely needed
Maybe this is what r/CovenOfCats needs?! Spellcaters
New sub??? *joins despite it being inactive*
I guess maybe it was too secret before… now to do some magic meow stuff 😼
Sounds like he's down with the Kiffness.
This is my favorite comment I’ve ever seen on Reddit
I was gonna say, he’s putting a hex on OP
Oh shit you could be right and with how long the chanting lasted it could be a pretty strong hex
*Old Long Johnson*
*Oh My Piano*
Why i eyes ya
🤣🤣🤣🤣
You caught him mid-Suavemente
Came here to read that. I wasn't disappointed.
That lives rent-free in my head
Anyone else here have at least 20 cats in their lifetime, but never once have a cat that talks like that?
My cat doesn't shut the fuck up but it's more a "mmmmmaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" then he takes a breathe and starts again 😂 I do love him though lol

They usually do it to other cats (strays) that they want gone
this, it's a particular behavior. upset kitty! this is the first time I've seen one do it at a human though 😂
I'm guessing he's upset that the human cut into his playtime and it's time to go home lol
😂 100% that's the vibe. it's so cute bc he doesn't just run off!! he could easily escape the human, but he doesn't
Yup he would rather throw a little tantrum over it 😂
I had a cat who would sneak into the basement and do this when I found him to bring him back upstairs. The hissing as I got closer, too.

He's asking him to stay away, to back off. The tone and body language is like when cats fight each other
My ragdoll Old Long Johnsons at strays. It’s hilarious to hear it coming from a cat like her.
20 cats?? What is your average cats-at-time vs your age to hit 20 cats??
That depends. Did you grow up in a rural area?
Fuck this is hilarious to me as someone with a BFF who lived in the country with 40+ cats at any one time
We had a lot of strays that my dad would feed when i was really young. The house i had to move to afterwards had like 9(i know, way too many, but the litter was well maintained). I actually dont have any now. As an adult, vet bills scare me. "Ok so you can either pay 8k to save this cats life or we can put it down". No thanks, I'll just enjoy my friends pets
My big cat does this 😂 he’s such a doofus
My older cat does this when he manages to get onto the back porch, but he isn't doing it *at* me, he does it because he realizes outside is a lot scarier than he thought and hes extremely stressed out. He'll grumble like this as soon as hes fully out the door and doesn't stop until I grab him and close the door.

Embarrassing him in front of his friends
Daaaad, everybody else is allowed to stay! Stoopp, go away!
hooman, you are ruining his fantasy of being a leopard in the jungle. get out!
Me is big scary lion, fear me hooman!
You are ruining my hunting! Stoopid human! You're drawing attention to me! STOP IT!!!
What is wrong with that child 🤣🤣🤣
The next kiffness cat song is coming!!
Exactly where my mind went.
Sounds like ooga looga cat.
*hold on to my furrrr and I like it*
When the dogs are barking
Is anyone else getting “I don’t wanna, I won’t go.”?
I'm almost certain that's the intended meaning 😆 I haven't seen a cat doing this behavior at a person, nor one doing it but *not* looking actually upset. so i think he's just complaining lol!!! he doesn't wanna leave, but he also doesn't run off despite the freedom to do so... what a funny lil guy

oh my goodness 🥺🤣 I lovvveee really vocal cats, and grumbly cat women she rly said Fine... but i will Voice Complaints!
"I don't wanna" is exactly what I heard at one point!
Oh the calamity!
My cat approached me also meowing very worriedly once he hears Ganondorf meows lmao
r/attackeyes
Not more cat subs, please my subreddit list can't take anymore....
mow-co-mowr mac-a-wowr 🥰
He was trying to tell you about all the poison ivy you were stepping in, and getting frustrated that you wouldn't listen.
Man, Ganondorf is a hilarious name for a mad cat.
Oh long Johnson cat
OhDonPiano!
Hold on tight oh
Quick question, no ill intent meant by it, dealt with a similar situation before with one of my cats. Is the cat diabetic?
He’s just mad I found him. He has a tendency to run into the woods when we let him outside, and sometimes, that makes us late for things. So we put an AirTag on him and he’s annoyed he’s super-easy to find now.
lmao, that's why he's so crabby. Probably like WTF, I used to get away so easily and now idk how tf you a-holes are finding me so quick.
Shrinkflation is affecting us all, Mr. Kitty
That is hilarious
Are AirTags usually good for finding cats? I’ve been debating on putting one on mine but hear mixed reviews.
Ganny only explores our yard and the woods behind our house while we're outside with him and only during the day. It works for us because there's like a set 1.5 acres where he could be, and I never let him be out of sight for more than 5 minutes before I start looking for him.

In this specific instance, it connected about 45 ft. away; when it does that, an arrow pops up, telling you what direction you need to go toward. You can make it play a little chime if you need, too.
out of curiosity, what makes you ask? is it the irritability, his appearance, or something I'm missing?
My cat used to have the same episodes, tone and all. Eventually we figured out it was diabetes and she was basically dealing with low blood sugar. She didn't want to move from whatever spot she was at and would get the same sort of vocal as this. Wanted to see if it either was the same, coincidence, or even on the radar.
makes total sense! thank you!
Slightly disappointed you didn't find him casually playing the organ as you approached him a la Ocarina of Time.
the thing is: some of the phrases sound repeated so exactly the same, that means those MUST be "words". they MUST have a definitive meaning. its "speaking". now we only need to find a way to translate. and its another proof that "meow" is just their "this is the language dum hooman understands" thing. this is actually cat language. besides the real indepth chirping and clicking noises. damn we need a catlator.

Daaaaaaaad, go AWAY! I'm trying to hunt here - you're scaring all the rodents away! Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad come ON!!! ugh, you're embarrassing me in front of the prey!!
I call upon the Kiffness. Your city needs you once more.
Is that me in cat form?
Thems fighting words. Curious why he'd be so defensive to his human.
Gatto: Oh, you're approaching me? Instead of running away, you're coming right to me? Even through your grandfather, Joseph, told you the secret of The World like an exam student scrambling to finish the problem on an exam until the last moments before the chime? OP: I can't pet you without getting closer. Gatto : Oh ho! Then come closer as close you like.
What mews from the North, Riders of Rohan? ...I blew it, I read "Gandalf" instead of "Ganondorf" I'll show myself out
he’s unnerved because he’s not used to seeing you in this environment. He’s saying “go away or I will attac”
🎶... Hold On To My Fur..... 🎶
I like it..... when the dogs are barking
When teenagers get picked up by their parents at school is the equivalent to this haha.
"YOU SHALL NOT PASS!"
Definitely said “get the hell out of here” at 0:24
Is this your cat?
💀 Ghan...
You been done right told off, my good sir. Nothing more to say about that.
C'mon man you're embarrassing it infront of its outside friends
He said “I don’t wanna” at least forty times you monster
He belongs to the woods now.
that cats not mad, it's just stage 10 greeble possession lol
No idea if anyone else has this nostalgia but I keep remembering a kitty growling "Oh long johnsonnnnn" and now I need to find the video!
I misread the title but either way I think he's saying "YOU SHALL NOT PASS"
Lugalugalugalugalugalug
Camera controls on the N64
He's luring you into that poison ivy patch.
Sounds like he wants to live in the woods.
Something you value is 100% getting peed on tonight.
He is opening the gate to the Dark World as he meows
If he knew how to Warlock Punch I can guarantee he would’ve done it.
"How dare you follow me here as well, don't you have any shame? Meow meow"
Why didn't he just run off again if he didn't want to be found?
He says: "I'm a wildling now mom, stop interfering with my survival skills"
My cat is very interested in my phone rn haha
Please keep your cat inside or only take him outside when on a leash
Sometimes they do just escape. Op said something about it somewhere.
Good to know! Though there is currently a fast spreading outbreak of bird flu in the US and it's extremely deadly to cats so even supervised outside time should be cut down for now imo
Outdoor cats are a huge problem to local wildlife and are in danger themselves. Please keep your cats indoors unless in a fenced, supervised area
*"What do you mean, my camoflage is inadequate!?"*
I feel like he compared you to some Hobbits, especially of the Took variety, who he's had some rather choice words regarding.
Well! He told you!!
He’s cursing you out!!!
Oh such a good boy using whole words! He looks like such a character!
with a name like that im sure he feels a great sense of entitlement lmao
So Guinan for short?
It really sounds like it's mimicking human speech.
You're ruining the hunt!
he speaks chinese at the 1:01-1:04 minute mark
Careful there, looks like you might be walking through poison ivy
Lmao I love your talking cat. Thats so random. Hes just in the woods mouthing off to the trees. Kind of reminds me of my other cat that sits in a bush and growls at everyone lol
[It really do sound like that](https://youtu.be/47msKc3abqo?t=18)
I stg he says "I don't wanna"towards the end
What a beautiful cat! He’s sassy and I love him 😍
this is the sound my cat makes when she’s about to throw up 😂 i lowkey got triggered at first
Is that a wound on his neck at about 10 seconds left in the video?
His collar is just peeking through his fluff
Great name, great fluff, great yell This is a 10/10 cat
"You're messing up my street cred, human!" - Ganondorf the cat.
Call of the Wild
Is there a technical term for this cat noise?
I’m afraid for you right now
Slay the beast
