The fact that cats are able to perceive human speech has long been established. According to the data obtained as a result of research, a trained cat can remember and recognize up to 100 words, the Belnovosti portal writes. The question is which of them are the most common and understood by all pets.
Experts say that almost all domestic cats know the word “well done” or its equivalent, with which the owners praise their pets. Pay attention – even if you do not touch the cat, but say the usual affectionate words to it, it reacts as if it were affection.
In addition to words of praise, domestic cats know many words related to food, both with products and with an invitation to eat. Your cat may be able to recognize the word “refrigerator” – it all depends on what exactly you say in the presence of a pet and where you get his food from.
Finally, cats are able to recognize not only their own name, but also the names of other family members, as well as the nicknames of other animals, if they live in the company of another cat or dog.
