Do you talk to your pets?

and i dont just mean "good boy!" and that sort of pet-talk. i mean when no one is around, do you basically have conversations with your pet when you see them? sometimes if my cat comes in my room, ill say whats up, ask her how she is, what she did today, stuff like that, usually she meows when she knows im speaking to her so i just pretend that shes talking to me. ill tell my cat things too, like things about problems im having or ill apologize to her if i have to get her off my lap.

i hope im not crazy.

I sometimes talk to them, usually its a pretty one way conversation though D: I dont really ask him how his day was, but i tell him whatevers goin on and whatnot

Go on then i'll admit it... I talk to my 2 cats :P

I'm always askin then where they have been, whats up with them & other stuff like that!

I bet a lot of pet owners talk to their pets because they are part of the family - they can be like children to some people :)

I always talk to my pets there the best friend a person can have, they sit and listen, they dont moan about it or run away and they always look at you with caring eyes.

If you want to just sit down and relax and your pets there, there the best thing to talk to.

i told my dog i knew it could talk and that i heard him and if he wouldn't talk to me i'd never feed him again
just to try get him to talk ;l;l

Made me LOL. :P

Yeah, I talk to my dog all the time, all of my family members do and he's deaf. Makes no difference. Love my pooch! :'D

I don't have conversations with my dog but for example if I was angry or something I might just look at my dog and go "I'm so mad" or something like that. Obviously she just stares back at me :|

yes we have engaging conversations regularly

When I had my dog I spoke to him

LOL how cute, i'm going to try that later with my dog!

Yeah I always do lol. I always ask my dogs how they are and stuff. Don't really go for the in depth conversation but I do like explain things I ask them to do even though they won't understand.

I always speak to my dog, ask her opinion on things and she always sniffs the things I should wear etc.

I talk to my dog and my hamster all the time (:

i like to talk to my cat lool

I talks to my dogs, other people look at me weird

I always talk to my dog, i don't ask him like how he is and stuff, but I say stuff like "aw kenzie you look sad what's up, hey? :(" and stuff like that O.O

of course i talk to my pets ;)
as soon as my guineapigs hear my voice they start squeeking like mad - usually its cos they want their veggies though ;) sometimes they squeek if i walk past the door, i must have a recognisable walk haha
but as for my 2 cats, yes :) my little boy will just purr and squint his eyes at me and my little girl sometimes gives a little meow and purr in reply haha but i just chat away to them if im getting ready for going out or if im watching a dvd ill pull one in for a little cuddle and tell him/her to watch the film and explain who the gorgeous alan rickman is and whats going on haha
back in the good old school days with my exams i used to revise by reading my notes aloud to one of my cats :) ofc they were always asleep but they were secretly listening ;)

I talk to my dog but don't have a conversation with her, just stuff like 'hey, howa you' etc.
I say hello to my cat and she meows back at me :D

i don't have a full blown convo with them lol but i'll say like hello to the chickens because the make a noise back :)

Ya I have a covo with my cat. I speak cat my mom tought me. (she is a vet)

LOLwut

I used o talk to my dog and my cat telling it that I wouldn´t tell anyone though lol and it would be a secret but yh all it did was meow then leg it.

Yep, animals understand speech to some extent and like it, so it's useful for both the idiot talking to the animal and the animal :P I talk to mine all the time!

I talk to my dog yeah but I never have like a full on convo expecting a reply :P I just tell him like "ah im so bloody annoyed" and "hey mister" - yeah, Idk tbh. I'm just like it with my dog, I'd never talk to anyone elses lol.

I dont think your the only one, but I talk to my guinea pig though, not full blown conversations, but stuff like "Hey Marvin, what you doin'"

Lmao, that just makes me sound strange but ah' well.

I think everyone does, seems kinda natural. I mean you have pets for so long that they kinda become like people, part of the family. If i am like really annoyed i talk to my animals, i think it's because you know they can't talk back, they always listen.

I used to talk to my dog all the time. I do talk to Florence like as if she is a baby (as she is) but you don't really get much of a reaction from a tortoise :P :)

Not a full blown convo but i speak to them xD

Yeah I speak to them. :D not like a massive conversation, but she understands some english :D

i talk to them yes, but its just the odd phrases like 'hey buster!' or 'whats up buster?' (if he looks a bit sad :()

cant say ive started a big convo with them though ;)

am i the only one who actually has conversations with their pets? hahaha, i just pretend they respond. like if my cat is hungry and he's meowing at me, ill talk to him and pretend his meows are responses.

I don't have a conversation with my dogs as they only growl or bark as an answer which really annoys me but obviously when they go on walks and have their dinner ect then I will HAVE to communicate with them unless they are a mind reader!
