--------------------------------------------------------------- There are many misconceptions about cats, but new studies are changing our preconceived notions. Recently, research has shown that owners alter their voice when addressing their felines, usually changing it to a higher pitch. Not only that, but they also found that cats are able to recognize their owner's “cat voice” versus that of a complete stranger.

This study, however, backs up what cat lovers already know: that their felines do pay attention to them. ​ Want a daily digest email featuring our latest articles?
