The kicker is, both of them have no qualms about eating chicken. (For those that don't know: chickens are cannibalistic. A flock of chickens will kill & eat injured chickens.)
Hilariously, the "I am feeling gentle and happy" sounds that chickens make are VERY similar to the "I am feeling warm and social" sound that cats make. Cat is saying: "Oh? Yes? Friendly? Me too!" by mirroring Chicken's tone. It's like when the latin root of a word is carried over through multiple languages so you can sort of understand what a person is trying to say even if you don't speak their tongue.
They do something similar while hunting too! The chattering noise they make when they see birds or are even actively hunting them. I wonder what the purpose of cats using mimicry is
@@iamagooddog21 oh my god this is a myth. Cats on a hunt make NO noise. Which should be obvious to anyone. The chattering noise is just a sign of frustration.
*4 years later* RU-vid: Hey you remember that "chicken and a cat talk to each other" vid? Me: yeah that was awesome RU-vid: wanna see it again? Me: *long inhale* YEEEEEESSSSS
@@Karmy. ur cat, the initiator of that conversation, probably has no idea how wild cats communicate as it's been with a caretaker all their life(either a mother or a human) respond to their meows, a common thing for socialized cats to do. (im assuming a lot here so correct me if anything is not the case
Chickens would eat anything, they usually fight each other to eat bits of chicken or egg so yeah tbh if they could talk to each other I’m sure this is what they’ll say lol
Having had chickens around enough to pick up some of their lingo & body language, I can tell you that this chicken is EXTREMELY comfortable with this cat.
Actually That’s not that threatening since in reality a velociraptor would only be slightly bigger than a chicken is now despite what Jurassic Park tells you (and don’t get me wrong i love those movies). However I’ve also heard from other sources that the chicken is the closest living relative to Tyrannosaurus Rex, so that’s something.
Judging by the relaxed body language of the hen, her soft clucking of acknowledgment, and the trill of the cat - This was a mutually respectful conversation about the weather.
The chicken looks calm and relaxed, and her voice sounds friendly and cute but she tells the cat: don't come closer - I often see this among chickens, and it usually ends up with a peck.
When I was a kid we had a cat and chicken that were just like this. They would hang out on the porch at night and one night my parents were out and they had a babysitter watching my sister and I and we heard knocking on the front door. The babysitter looked out the window at the porch and didn't see anyone. This went on for an hour and she called the police. The police show up and when she opened the door they were laughing and holding the cat and chicken. The officer looked at our sitter and asked "Do you want us to book em'?
123gozane LOL!! What a great story!! My chickens knock on the door too. It’s so funny they peck it repeatedly and it sounds like knocking. I have tried to get a video of it. 😆
It will always be that way. It is inherent within a “democratic” system. The reason why our way of life doesn’t work, democracy is an infants answer to an adult problem. But never mind me, forget about it and get lost in the endless debate. Often not useful, rarely ever productive. Causes divisions within society, I shouldn’t go on. And just to save my ass, I suggest replacing it with a system we *have not* yet thought of. I know, real useful. Apologies
I've had chickens for years. The hen is saying, "No, you may not sniff my butt. If you come any closer I will peck you on the nose so hard like that other time. Don't tempt me, but yeah, have a good day."
@@x2malandy For ANY fan of cats I strongly recommend reading Fritz Leiber's short story, Space Time For Springers. Gee I found for free from the publisher www.baen.com/Chapters/9781625791207/9781625791207___2.htm
I speak both cat and Chicken fluently. The chicken is saying " this is my space please don't bother me", the cat is saying" Don't be boring please play with me"
"you left an egg in my litter tray." "I did not." "Yes you did. Stop lying." "I didnt do it." "You did. I sat on it." "Well, that was very kind of you. Could you get back on it?" "No!" "Please?" "Get your egg out my tray." "No" "I hate you." "I hate you too." "Bloody chickens." "Damn cats."
Watch Monty Roberts and see how he learns to understand how horses communicate! So interesting. There is so much we do not know about how animals communicate...
I've seen this before myself, where I lived we had many cats and man's chickens, I even saw a hen protect a kitten from a very aggressive rooster she was willing to die to protect that kitten I had to step in or she would have, the rooster was violent for some reason but the hen sat on that kitten and refused to budge.
That chicken looks so happy and content. I just love when they are fluffed up and softly chattering like this one. I wish i could have my flock of 5 silkies live in the house with me lol, sadly they can't be housetrained 😅
cat does make a good point in regards to existential methodologies of post modern interrelationship transcendence. yet, one must not ignore the facts that chicken has stated about the intrinsically discordant division of phonetics within the societal structures of the sectoral superlatives.. such brilliantly intellectual conversation really does inspire one to endeavor for more thorough investigation and discussion into these perplexing subjects 😐😐😐
You kidding me right? Guys the cat was way better prepaired. His arguments and facts are just so solid. Personally I found the cat better in this debate.
praise God Job 12:7But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee: 8Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee. 9Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this? 10In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.
"So whats the deal with sitting on stones?" "Oh no no no no those are our children" "WHAT!" "Oh yeah, thats basic chicken 101. Don't tell me you don't lay eggs?" "NA MATE! We just pop out several damn cute kitten." "Oh the horror!"
This encounter mirrors a political debate between candidates: They don't understand each other's language but they still argue. In the end, both candidates think they've won.
Thank you so much for uploading Bumble Bee and Maui having such a lovely conversation, and for petting Maui during the process. So often otherwise perfect videos of cats fail to include someone petting the poor neglected kitty, which is so heartbreaking. The Maine Coon "Sean Coonery" videos hardly ever include the essential gentle strokes and skritches every feline requires.
Fun fact: Cats rarely meow to each other, so it's thought that cats meow trying to imitate us when talking, in an attempt of communicating with us. Based in that, yes, the cat is indeed talking to the chicken. Not sure about the chicken though, the only thing I can say about her is, _she thicc_
@RoseMarie Hogan Did you meow to them regularly? That could lead them to trying to communicate like that around you to include you in the group. Sounds like they like you a lot.
@RoseMarie Hogan was it a meow or mewing? Cats tend to use meow at humans, and make a short mew to each other ... along with the chirp, trill and ...well what I call 'chatter'.
Barred Rock hens are sweet but tough and know how to talk and negotiate with any other critter. When pressed into a corner they will hurt you bad, real bad. I had one that fought off a hawk, made a fox run in tears and kept my horse a respectful fellow. Cute vid, thanks Lauryn229.
My first chicken ever was a Barred Rock, she was an Oregon Dept. of Agriculture rescue. I named her Clara, this was in 1976. She was big and smart as a dog, took no nonsense from the cats. This video took me back, way back I am 53 now.
Idk about you, but for me it's very cool to see these 2 creatures, similarly sized yet so different, just hanging out and communicating with each other
@@KOTEBANAROT My parents elderly Siamese was ready to eat an Akitas face off that my buddy brought over. The Akita was like wtf man, chill. He's the biggest coward and runs when the doorbell rings usually.
@@MrTheHillfolk lmfao 🤣 I love hearing stories of dogs afraid of cats! It's like mice and elephants just because it's tiny doesn't mean that no harm can be done 😅
