are you talking to your pets?

yes that's very true! we usually talk to our dogs here at home. I read in a magazine that even our dogs have emotions so we really must treat them well. They understand us even though we don't understand their barks.Ü We always say to them that we love them. Dogs are so adorable.Ü

Hi there! I do the same with my pets. I am single and most of the time alone so they are my best friends and children at the same time. I know they understand what I say cause they follow my orders and give me expressions as if telling me yes mom hehe. I even tuck them in bed every time it's sleeping time. They're like humans already, babies actually. I do miss them right now cause I'm out of town and I have to leave them in the care of my maid. When I'm away my maid says my pets looks sad. I know they miss me too. Ciao!

Hi friend, In our country there is no place for human being to stay happily,than you can imagine about the place of pets.Generally in common people they won't have money to feed the animals,they themselves feed with lots of difficulty per day.Like wise i am too.I generally don't have pets in my house.So there is no question of talking with them.But it is always good to feed the pets and play with them as like our friend. Have a nice day

I have three dogs, and I talk to them all the time just as if they were my kids. They may not understand everything I say to them, but I think they understand more than most people would give them credit for knowing.

we talk to our pet cats.we scold at them when they did something bad.we tease them,saying "oh you have big,big eyes.you look like an alien".we ask them if they are hungry,especially if they meow a lot.we love our pets.we treat them like humans.we treat them as family.

While it is true animals might not necessarily understand some of the words you say, since dogs can understand up to around 300 or so words... they do understand the tone of your voice and your body language. I'm not that much of a dog person, just because I can't handle them correctly I do love them as long as they're not mine. I'm a cat person and own at this time one black cat with a tiny white spot on her throat. I taught her to sit, to rub my fist on command so she would get a treat and up so that she'd stand to get the treat. Animals are certainly smarter than some people give them credit for. Just think of all the animals that have saved peoples lives, especially when it was carbon-monoxide poisoning or fire in the house. What about the cat and dogs that have been sent to live elsewhere half way across a continent or all the way and somehow made their way back home? I talk to Tosca all the time... I think she got jealous of my computer because she knocked the modem over twice and the hard-drive is shot, a professional wasn't even able to ghost the information from it to the new one.

I tend to do that, too. Cats are really good about making eye contact and actually looking like they know what you're saying. My husband used to shake his head at me when he'd see me talking to our pets. lol I've found it to be very comforting to be able to confide in them. Sometimes you just need to get feelings out, but don't want to talk about the subject with anyone else. Sometimes just getting the words out helps. The fact that they can't answer back sometimes helps. They're good at listening to your side of any story and always seem to agree with whatever your point is.

yes i talk to my pet hamster all the time. I believe that is a must so your pet will be more aquanted to you and obey you more. Nonlovers of animals wouldn't know because they probably think animals are stupid or people who have animals are stupid, and they are very wrong. Animals are just like people they have the same feelings we do. They deserve to be loved and talked to, and not ignored.

I do like to talk to my pets, I have two dogs and two cats, they all understand what I say! :-) I taught them lots of basic command when they were small(dogs) and when they get older, they even understand more than that like some usual talking besides the command; I treat them just like my family member, I love them very much!

Yes, I talk to them and they understand me too, I wonder their talent.

We talk to our toy poodle all the time. We treat her like our daughter and a part of our family. And she seemed to understand what we tell her. She knows when we are upset and happy with her. She knows when she has done something totally wrong. She knows when we tell her that she could not tag along when we go out. She knows when we tell her to be gentle with our one year old son.

I have 2 dogs, 2 rats, a fish and a cat, and I talk to ALL of them pretty much constantly. I think I may talk to my pets more than I talk to my animals. It's never seemed strange to me. The do hear what I'm saying, and they can tell from the tone of my voice what kind of mood I'm in, so its kind of like talking to an an infant who hasn't learned to talk back yet.

Do i talk to my pets yea beacuse thats all a pets wants is to be talked to and be treated with respect some owners talk about how they dog bit them thats becasue you wasnt treating him or her weith respect and relating to it making convosations with the pet so yea i talk to my pet and other people should too

I ALWAYS talk to my animals like babies. I treat them like my children, cause they're the only ones i have! If you talk to them like they're stupid, they're going to sense you think they're stupid. I talk to mine like humans and they know exactly what i'm saying to them even when they're in trouble. My husband thinks i'm odd sometimes... But i've caught him doing the same thing :)

i work part time and am home during the day sometimes when my kids are at school, i often talk to our cat and as you do, i scold her too but i am sure she doesnt listen lol. after all, it is said, dogs have owners, cats have staff!

Nothing wrong with talking to your pets, I do it all the time, lol. I have two cats, and most of the time they look like they're rolling their eyes, like, 'Oh, sure, uh-huh,' then saunter off.

I do not have a pet, but in our neighborhood, I often see people walking with their dogs. They would talk to the dogs as if to their children. And the dogs seem to understand quite well and follow the directions perfectly. Dogs are smart, they can be trained to give intelligent performances. It is more than just verbal direction, but communication with passion.

I do talk to my dogs and they seem to understand what i say.

Absolutely. Dogs, especially, pick up on your moods and tones. If you say NO very forcefully, they understand that. Dogs are very smart. All we used to have to do was say the word "walk" and my dog's ears would perk up and she would go get her leash! Whoever says dogs don't understand is crazy! You keep right on talking to your dogs.

i love my cats , well one more than the other as ive had it a lot longer. but i still don;t tend to talk to them. however my dad tends to talk to them as if they know whats going on. i keep telling him it doesnt understand.
