My cat didn't use to, but now she's very talkative when she's happy. I guess I reinforced it π€·ββοΈ... Because now she'll chirp, purr, and meow when curling up on me, when I come home from being gone a few days, and when I give her treats... She's the best.
They definitely learn what works.
Our old girl was pretty quiet in her younger years. Then she started hanging out in the kitchen as my wife cooked dinner for the kids, and sheβd meow. Then Meow. Then MEOW! And my wife would feed her early just to shut her up.
So now she meows all the time in the kitchen
And they say we're smarter than cats...
