If you call a cat's name, and he knows it, he will certainly respond. Usually a domestic cat will raise its tail and back, turn its head and ears towards you, and respond with a light chirp that sounds like 'pirrrup'. If he knows you well enough, he will walk lightly to you, rubbing on things as he comes to show friendliness. Sometimes a cat will just sit there, look at you, half-blink or blink slowly, then turn away. This slow blink, in cat language, means respect and love. If you call for an angry cat, he will turn at you, flatten or whip back his ears, lower his head, fluff himself out, hiss or snarl, and sit there until you go away. This is a territorial behavior which attempts to tell the person that they are not welcome. A whiping cat's tail tells that he is getting frustrated or angry with you and that you should back away now, or he will become territorial and may attack. Cats use their tails to send many messages.
Respond creatively but not submissively.
The response a cat has to catnip toys depends on the cat. Each cat can respond differently. Some cats tend to get playful and aggressive and others will get mellow and relaxed.
Cats may not "forget" their names, but they may not always respond to it if they are not used to hearing it regularly or if they have been trained to respond to another cue. Consistent reinforcement and positive associations with their name can help a cat remember and respond to it.
Try many different names. If it responds, then you have found a name for your cat.
A cat will respond to its name being called out if it wants to.
Cats only respond if they want to. He/she may have more important things to do. Some cats don't respond to certain words. Many cats respond better to a name that contains the letter 'I'. If your cat is still young he/she will need to learn that it is his/her name. You may not be using the correct tone of voice, you may be speaking too nicely. Your cat may be partially deaf.
Yes. I think that Sasha is quite an acceptable name for a cat for the sibilence in the 'S' and the 'Sh'. This means that when you call the cat's name they will respond nicely and pur.
The cat would eat them because the mice are in the barn and the cat knows they're in the barn, assuming the cat is in the barn, too. Where they entered is irrelavent.
Cat vocalizations are not like human speech, they don't actually have words that they use to express themselves. However, cat vocalizations are still very expressive. So while the cats aren't actually speaking the way you and I think of it, the mother cat will still respond to her kittens. The cat has a wide-range of tonal variations that it can use to express itself, and other cats will respond to those variations.
Cats can learn to recognize their names and respond to them, but their reactions may vary from cat to cat. Some cats may come when called, while others may simply acknowledge their name with a twitch of the ear or look in the direction of the sound. Overall, building a strong bond with your cat through positive reinforcement can help in teaching them to respond to their name.
