I just giggled out loud. I admit it. I giggled out loud cause I am half asleep and without thinking, wrote "oink oink!" at the end of an answer to somebody. When did we stop making animal noises? Who told us we were too old to make oink and hee haw and meow noises out loud? Who spoiled our party? I know somebody who still meows and coos at cats when she meets them. I love her free spirit. I am this side of meowing at cats new to me, too, but stop when I notice somebody looking at me. Why does everyone have to be sophisticated and grownup every single minute of the day? So..... instead of saying "Good night John Boy!" like I'm in the Walton's house, I will say to you dear readers: Oink Oink. Have a Merry little oink oink Yule Tide. (Yes I am a wee bit off the rails as I think about making sticky buns for Christmas Eve. Two people in my house and I am thinking about a pan of sticky buns. Oink indeed.)

@JudyEv You don't oink but I am guessing you moo at cows.

@sallypup Thinking about it, Viince makes more animal noises than me. He moos, oinks, barks and meows much more than I do.

It was me that you wrote ''oink, oink'' on my cookie post earlier, saying you were thinking of making sticky buns for Christmas. Personally, I don't think that's oink-worthy, dear. It's Christmas. Make the rolls, and enjoy them. It may not be the healthiest thing you could make to eat, but do it anyway. It's only once a year!

I meow at my cats all the time and they meow back. Even strange cats come into my yard and I meow at them to.

I meow at the cats sometimes and growl at the dogs a lot.

I talk to all animals; and I don't care who's around. I also can make baby alligator calls in the swamp and have been answered by the real babies. Don't worry about it. Enjoy! Have a good day.

@sallypup Yup. My husband was jealous because I could mimic the babies so well. We were in the Everglades. I love it there and in the Keys.
