      Idk about that my cat is having full blown conversations with one of the neighbours cats she’s friendly with. Mostly as a calling sound after which they chill on top of our shed.

      It is baby speak so to speak since their meows are modulated to sound like babies crying to get our attention more easily.

      Slightly worse than that in some ways. Domestication of both dogs and cats seems to stunt their development at the younger stages of puberty. They never actually become adult cats and dogs, we stunted both their growth, and theirs, by domesticating them and us.
