When you live with a Cat has 200 IQ Living with a regular cat is already an adventure, but imagine sharing your home with a feline Einstein? #CatLife #GeniusCat #FunnyAnimals #IQ200 #cat #cats
I had a cat long years ago who was a genius. He was as mean as the junkyard dog towards men (I got him as a half grown kitten from a shelter; maybe he'd been abused) but he loved women. Tiger was an orange tabby, small in size but he ruled my other cats with an iron paw. He was an avid mouser/ratter (his ability to smash with those paws was astounding) and he was easy to train to a lead, to do certain tricks (always for treats; he wasn't a *dog* after all) and looked forward to walks outside on his lead to chase mice in the vacant lot by the apartment. One day I was getting ready for work, running a little late, when Tiger knocked a toy of his under a piece of furniture out of reach. He meowed for me to retrieve it for him but I had no time. "Not now, Tiger, I'll get it for you when I get home from work," I told him. He sat down and watched me head out the door. Sure enough, when I got home he ran to the door, then to where the toy had rolled under the furniture, and meowed for me to do what I'd promised. So I fished the toy out for him right away, and I was impressed with his memory and straightforward ordering me to do what I'd said I'd do. RIP Tiger, lost him years ago but I've never forgotten him and his intelligence.
petuniasevan That was a long comment you made. You loved Tiger. That last paragraph you wrote. A precious memory of him. I've experienced that loss twice. I wanted to share my own experience with two little ones that bonded with me in honor of your life with Tiger. After 2+ hours composing my first comment it was becoming too long. So a shorter comment to you and my companions. My Billy. So fond of him. Knew him from a kitten. Not a lap cat. He passed on his own terms. Girl. A black short hair stray that adopted me. She slept on my back a couple times. We were very close. She had a brain tumor. Had to be put down... I don't want to experience that pain ever again. No more cats. I think you have the same thought. But now. There is a black cat stray that keeps visiting me when I come home from work. Not for food. It's the neck scratching. She loves it. She looks so much like Girl and acts like her. I don't want to experience my heart crushed again when this one dies.
@@tigerzero5216 I say, adopt that new stray kitty! I know losing them is so, so hard, but the joy they bring can’t be found anywhere else. And I believe your beloved Girl would approve this message.

Reminds me of that quote... A dog looks at a human and thinks "they feed me, take care of me, buy me things and give me a home...they must be some kind of god." A cat looks at a human and thinks "they feed me, take care of me, buy me things and give me a home...I must be some kind of god."
I love cats and those I have had in my life were all exceptional personalities. One cat I had picked out from a shelter was amazingly talented. Even though I had a couple of cats then, I lost one because he had died from old age, so I was looking for another one for its companion. When I got to the shelter, I was looking at all the cats that they had there, they were all meowing, but one happened to catch my eyesight. At first when I came to his cage and petted him, he was only meowing quietly, but when I decided to look at others, and left his area, that’s when he started meowing more loudly, as if to say take me. Then I came back to take a better look at him. He started purring and somehow we connected so I decided to adopt him and take him home with me. Even though he was a young cat, I found out later he was on death row about to be euthanized. He looked like Garfield and so I named him Garfield. He even acted like Garfield, ate lasagna like Garfield, and had the attitude of Garfield. His biggest accomplishment though was turning on lights when I wasn’t around and I had to work overtime at a job I did in the day with a small newspaper establishment..(Putting a newspaper together is more work than anyone realizes it, especially with one which is small and a ad commercial driven business). Every time I would come home, I found the lights had been turned on. At first it was every time the food or water bowl was empty. Then it escalated to being turned on so he and his companion wasn’t playing or staying in the dark at night. I finally figured out what was going on and so the next thing I did was tape the light switch to keep him from switching it on. As I was taping the switch, he was watching every move I made, and looking at me with those big beautiful eyes of his…as if to say…”You caught me….Now what am I going to do?” He was one uniquely talented cat, and a personality to go with it. RIP Garfield, you are sorely missed. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🇺🇸
That is so sweet and funny. I love it when cats pick US vs the other way around. And I laughed when you said he was watching your every move as you taped the light switch. I'm sure he was trying to figure out, even then, how to undo what you were doing, lol.
Thank you for sharing. I'm sure he was a wonderful cat and very happy you saved him. The light meow was probably him sensing being put down soon. So sad to see them go, I hate it because I love them so much
We recently had a stray cat “adopt” us as her family, lol. She started showing up, and we started feeding her and letting her come inside out of the cold, and the rest is history. She’s a sweet cat, very comfortable around humans, so it seems she had a family at one point. My daughter speculated that she might have belonged to some people in the neighborhood who just moved away. I said I didn’t know why they would leave their pet cat if that was the case, and my daughter said maybe they couldn’t afford to feed her anymore, and then I considered that they could have been moving to a place where pets weren’t allowed, but if that’s true, they didn’t have to abandon the cat. That’s not right. Anyhow, she has a human family who loves her and takes care of her now. It’s been a long time since I had a cat, and I have missed feline company so much. Before I had my human children, I had “cat children”.
@@Redeemed.of.YHVH.thru.Christ People have their reasons, and if you missed having some cat company so much, why not adopt one? there are millions (I checked) of cats who need a home right NOW! so what's stopping you to get one?
I will never understand people who dislike cats.** ** Those allergic to cats++ are exempted, of course. ++ You have my sympathies; that truly must suck.
@@asit1lol, yup, I have no obligation to your dislike for something I have, it wouldn't make sense to have to dispose of my animal just because you dislike the species, if you don't don't like my pets I'm not going to obligate you to hang out with me and them, go find a friend who doesn't have a cat, feeling sympathy about it is a pointless waste of both our time, because if you're happy with you and I'm happy with me and we feel good doing what we doing, then what are you sympathetic for, that I don't get to stand in your glorious perfect presence? 😂😂😂
Don't feel sympathy, it's contriving to feel sympathy, just means that you think you have something so much better to offer even though the other person is secure in their own way of life, they have no idea what you think you have to offer and therefore wouldn't even realize they were missing something. I have no sympathy for anyone, you do you and kiss my butt if anyone thinks they're better than me and I just can't live appropriately without thier oversight! Sympathy is insulting.
A few years ago we had a siamese cat named Bob. He was the smartest cst I've ever met. He had different knocks for different doors and windows. A total of 7. He responded to variations of his name. Even let you know if he didn't lije one. I pretty sure he was smarter than a couple of my friends and more than a few of my family.
Definitely more loyal than some people I know. Might be a little worrisome if we knew how intelligent they are. Probably keep me up at night. 😳😏 👏👏 Bob, brilliant!
One of my smartest cats fetched and returned a ball 75 times in a row! No other cat I owned has ever been able to replicate that feat! He lived to be 20 years old and I still dream about that smart orange Tabby long after his passing.
My cat Biscuit 🐈 always curves his leg and paw then takes his paw and pulls my hand to his face where he proceeds to pet my hand with his head…oh yeah, he also opens doors, drops singular pieces his dry food into his water bowls, waits about ten seconds, than pulls it out and eats it (I believe he’s softening the food 🤣), can drink from a spoon (he loves almond milk 😉), and most impressively, he drinks from water bottles (that have just a little water left) using his paws to hold it at an angle to drink from. He’s a trip. 😂
Cats are inventive and inteligent, and have excellent taste and memoroy. I have not spoken to my aunt for several years, after she told her renter neighbor that if that cat got into my aunt's garbage, my aunt would kill it. This aunt was stupid enough to set her untied garbage bad on her back porch. I avoid stupid people even if they are relatives by marriage. Her husband, my blood uncle once said "I can't stand a cat." and I thought, bud, I can't stand you.
My girl was really clever (sometimes 😂 Even the smartest cats have their empty head moments.) She learned to come to me when I called her name and I never had to give her treats for her to do it. All I had to do was tell her she was a good girl any time she did something I liked. I miss her. 😿 Rest in peace, Teacup.
Very cute! Reminds me of my cat. I had gone shopping and bought a bag of cat treats. The phone rang as I was coming in, so I stopped to answer the phone and put the treats down on the dinning room chair which we don't use often. Weeks later, my one cat is putting on weight and I am concerned. Another day, as I walk by the door, I hear crunching sounds. He had eaten a hole through the bag and had consumed a good amount of the bag! The little sneak! He was very unhappy when his supplemental food source went away.
My cat was so smart at savings he put $ 40.xx down my register within the first year I had him. I used to put my Toonies, Loonies, and Quarters on top of my cabinet. He'd just pick them up and drop them in the register slot. I since stopped doing that and put my coinage in night table. I'm Canadian by the way.
This video reminds me why I love cats. They are exceptional personalities, loving, clean and A LOT OF FUN. They always do something crazy! You also can multiply them, lol. And Kittens are whole another story.
I had a cat like this. She'd do all kinds of crazy things... like she'd get tired of being ignored when you were on the phone, and hit the button that the receiver rests in when you hang up so the call was disconnected. (This was back in the days of oldschool landlines, with the receiver you'd pick up from the cradle.) Or she'd coil beneath the light switch in the bathroom, then make noises like she was dying so you'd rush in there in a panic and flip the light switch on to see what was wrong. The second you went to switch the light on, she'd jump up and tag you. Every time you turned around, lol... she was putting that IQ to work. Opening cabinets and drawers, finding what she wanted, and taking it. Popping out the cable to the back of the screen if she was fussed at by someone who was watching TV and wanted to tell them FU (the picture would go to snow, and she knew that). RIP Littles. You were truly the best of mews.
A cat motivate stability, give security, and assures natural progress. This is a lovely creature from nature and you must know how to use it. I keep a third generation female cat in my home.
Cats are more than smart enough to follow instructions. It's just that most of the time they don't see the point. But if they love you A LOT and things are really good between you at that moment they might sit and roll over when you tell them to.
My friend’s tabby, William, can speak English in sentences, and he has pointed told me not to record him on You Tube because, and I quote: “I don’t like fame”. He knows that if people heard him speak as well as he does he would become very famous, given how articulate he is. I have tried recording him secretly-he would look at the phone, stop using his words, and say “meow” very deliberately. Very frustrating indeed…
I used to foster cats. One of them I had for a week was very intelligent. They had to be kept inside my flat for obvious reasons (because they might run away otherwise) but this cat was begging to be let out every day. He would look at me and then look at the window and point his head toward the window then look back at me, as if to say "I want to go outside", and he would do that several times, it was so weird. I literally tried to explain to him that I couldn't let him out. I sort of gestured and spoke at the same time because I wanted to communicate that fact to him. There were other things he did that were almost like a little child trying to tell me what he wanted but the window gesture was almost creepy. Lovely cat though, who, without explaining further, really loved himself.
6:01 this is exactly what my cat does as well. We lock the front door and leave the keys in(so she can't go outside whenever she feels like it) and she figured it out that we do something with the keys, so now when she demands to go outside she reaches to the keys with her front paws and keeps nagging at it and mewing 😂 she's essentially saying "do the thing with the keys so i can go out"...
I LOVE cats. They are the smartest animals. Smarter than dogs by far. They say Dolphins are very smart too. All the cats I’ve had since I was a child understood what I said to them. They obeyed me, would take my necklace or a tshirt out of my room, down the starts and show it to whatever friend or aunt or uncle was visiting. Then I’d say “put it back in my room, you’re making a mess” and my Siamese cat would look at me, meow and in his mouth, would take my necklace or tshirt all the way to my room, going up the stairs, passing the upstairs living room, hallway, all the way to my room. Super intelligent 🩷💚😻
That's definitely not my case. Kyle is a sweet, precious darling, but smart... nope. I tried those tablet games with him. He just stares at the screen, then at me, then at the screen again... and tries to eat the corners of the tablet 😂
