*THIS* Is Why Cats Need Talking Buttons 

Todd is such an amazing boy. I have a cat with congestive heart failure and I wish he could tell me how he’s feeling.

I love the way Todd rubs up against Dad after Dad uses the buttons to say, "Todd back ouch, huh?" I think Todd was saying, "I'm really glad that you understand me, Dad." 🥰

This is one of the best practical use cases I can think of in working on animal communication. To have a pet be able to tell you where and how it hurts, with accuracy, is a quantum leap in animal healthcare. I'm also terrified of the prospect of teaching my cats these kinds of buttons, as my mind grapples with the eventuality of explaining to a pet things that might not be fixable.

Dad: You should try it, it's a good fishy 🐟 Glamour : Nooooo 😹

Even when his shoulder was hurting, Todd was so loving and sweet.

It’s certainly very helpful, if my Jynx had been able to tell me it hurt to go potty I’d probably still have him. 😢 Glad to hear he’s feeling better now👍🏼🙋🏼‍♀️

I'm so glad his back is feeling better now. It's wonderful that he was able to ask you to look at it when he had a sore shoulder!

The love exhibited makes my heart sing. ❤ Thanks for posting.

Awwww, you get gummy nose boops from Todd. So sweet. Maybe not so much after the fishy treat though! LOL

I have some large fish shaped treats that we call "Fishy Whales" I only have to say "who wants a Fishy Whale" and no matter where my Giuseppe Puss is located in the house he suddenly appears like a rocket, Thats how much he likes his Fishy Whales! Its a pity Glamour doesn't like the treats.

Love the Way glamour says…. Nooo…. To the fishy

Alternate Title: Todd finds new botton combos to get backrubs from his dad 😂. Just Kidding. It's great he can communicate his concerns to you.

I started to worry as soon as I read the title. I hope all is well and Todd was just a little sore. Daddy will take care of him.

Hopefully it was just a scratch or a muscle twinge. Be well Todd. ❤

I watched this video after the second one on this topic... so won't comment again on Mr. Todd... Glamour is sooo sweet. I love her soft but adamant voice.. Dad, I know what I like and don't like... No fishy treat! And turns her back to prove her point! Adorable.

Awww look at his tail. 😂❤

For Todd, having his "Dad" stroke his fur and pay careful Attention to what might hurt is about like a human person taking aspirin - unlikely to hurt, and possibly a Help. (For Glamour, well let us Just Say that she {generally speaking} would have a Bad reaction, to the Exact Same "Treatment.")

I just love the love and trust going on here, both ways. Dad trusts Todd to tell him when something is up & Todd trusts Dad to understand, most of the time. Sometimes Todd simply does not have the words for what is going on but he will get them.

Stand your ground Glamour! There are several food groups that I have never cared for. Fish and cheese. It gets annoying when you say "no thank you" and people try and convince you to eat it any way because it's "really good". Love the way she totally turned her back on the third offer. No word buttons needed for that message.

You are such a WONDERFUL pet parent!! And he’s such a bright and beautiful boy.

I love the way Todd looks back up at you, he really is in proper communication with you. He's so smart, I hope he can tell you if he has any hurts or ouches. Does he need more buttons to connect some of his buttons so he can express more thoughts and needs? Do Paulie and Glamour also use buttons? They are all so cute.❤

Glad it was something small that got away easy and as always Glam glam is in temper mood lol

3:41 that flop 😊😍🫠

That tail expression!

todd is such a wonderful cat! it is great that he can let you know if something is wrong with him! other wise it is difficult to know when there is an issue.

Oh yes. The buttons come very handy and important in these cases. - Glamour was clearly in wait for some of that jummy chicken.... 😉

He started to do his stretch like he often does and stopped.

Todd is now at that age where you sometimes just wake up with something hurting because you laid on it oddly.

Todd is the smartest little guy, love his using his buttons in this way, like when he had the ouch in his mouth and when glamour had given him a good swipe and he told on her,lol

Do you have an animal chiropractor nearby? Todd's so cute... such a sweety and so smart.

He wanted a cat massage

Hi. What would be amazing, is if Todd told you on behalf of Glamour and Paulie, if something specific was ever wrong with them also, as the feline family branch's spokescat :) Their being indoor kitties, with no predator danger or food hunting priority, we wonder whether this leaves room for developing other skills a bit more. It was interesting to learn from another recent posting that Todd became a different and happier cat once it was known he personally thrived with a lot of extra affection and cuddles and could express himself via the buttons. Never heard of these buttons before but seen way too much intelligence shown since watching your videos to be sceptical now. You are giving Todd the ability to be able to experience the heights of his potential in this incarnation and live his very best life. My wife has to chase a few cats away from our first little garden due to their trying to stalk small birds. She's learnt that alarm the Crows, Magpies, Robin and Blackbird all do, and goes outside to do her part to ensure that when the alarm is sounded, she'll assist and go scare off that darned cat. This happened last week and it all then went quiet for about 10 minutes and then happy little cheeps and tweets all started. Cat definitely gone then. Most homes around us have a cat or dog. We don't, so deem ours to be a safe sanctuary and a birdie jardin for the small and medium birds. So it's especially nice to see your videos of the other side of cats, and Todd's kitty development via the buttons. There are stranger things than dreamt of in our reality, for sure. Thanks for your content!

He let you know if he hurting the cat buttons help him tell you 😊😊😊

4:12 i'm sure you noticed he only stretched one foreleg.

Your so right

Love the communication between you both. The kitty kisses are adorable.

This is so amazing, that he can express himself more and more clearly.

I'm afraid my boys are going to ouch their shoulders the way they leap down from high places! Especially the orange boy, Ginger Ninja. Actually, I think I should change his name to Ginger Sumo Wrestler, if you know what I mean. He was s healthy 10lbs when I brought him inside after he had been hanging around on my windowsills (and spraying through the screens because he was an intact tom). He's FIV+ or I would have released him back to his happy free lifestyle. Now he's inside, never has to fight, and has more food than he needs, so he's chonked up quite a bit. I wouldn't over feed him intentionally, but my other boy was starving when he came in some months before Ginger. He should have been 14lbs but was only 10lbs. Different sized kitties. And after learning that there was always plenty and he didn't have to scarf his food, he became a natural grazer. Only problem is, now that Ginger is here, I have to work to make sure one gets enough and the other doesn't steal his food. I haven't been successful. I try, though. I worry about the extra weight on Ginger because of the FIV especially, but also because of the stress on his joints. He and Ombre were buddies on the streets and Ombre was lonely without him inside, so I want to keep Ginger alive and healthy as long as possible. P.S. editing to add that it took me a while to figure out that Ombre wanted Ginger to move in. Buttons might have helped!

They love their daddy so much! ❤

Such a Beautiful Kitty! VERY SMART TOO! This is FASCINATING!

its good in one way and yet can be scary too feel better Todd

When you asked Todd who ouched Todd back, her fellow over on his side. Maybe he was trying to tell you he fell?

Yes buttons certainly help however without an extremely loving human to pay attention our furry friends wouldn’t b compelled to tell us

Sometimes my cats will catch a toenail in the carpet when stretching, that can be an ouch into the shoulder. Perhaps check his paws?

Did he jump from a high place, or is he unused to jumping? Feel better soon, Todd ❤❤

👍👍👍

Poor Todd needs a massage

Like trying to get a kid to eat broccoli.

He usually stretches approaching his buttons, right? But, with one paw retracted???

Bad Back ouch be ok.

Maybe he needs to see a veterinarian chiropractor?

Glamour is a Karen 😉

Todd, were you playing too hard?
