This is why Russell doesn't like sharing. Between them breaking the toy and him just never feeling like he can get the toy when he wants it, right then and there. Something about that is always nice (what? me? no no no I'm not projecting my own thing on to Russell, never. Totally all Russell 😶)
Absolutely love Russel's beautiful fur. I had a white and ginger like Russel. His name was Mellow. I would have definitely tried the buttons. He was my trip companion. He loved the car. Never a growl or a fawl, always happy and confident. I miss him. Gone too early at 5 years old.
Oh wow. I had two boys, brothers same litter, died at 6 and 7 years old likely had some heart defects the vet thought, I thought they died awful early too! They died over four years ago and it still stings even though I’ve got more cats now it just seemed sooo early to lose them. Neither one died from accidents so it was quite unexpected. The younger one did have more frequent trips to the vet he seemed to get infections easily, but the other one was not sick at all: they just stopped eating.
@@deborahemielita5949 My orange boy Milo died a few days before his fifth bday. I swear these genetic heart diseases are a bitch. I wish vets would talk about them from the start more often instead of waiting for it to show its nasty face. :/
Susanlbk, it's like with kids- will they have two or three feather toys, no one will be interested anymore. 😂😂😂😂 The competition gives much more value for it. 🤭 (I've got 4 kids, I know what I'm talking about! 😅)
What gap? I was able to understand my cat just fine. Lern to read situation and body language its not that hard. Thez understand keywords with the time so we can lern to read a cats body language where's the issue. Without this language buttons you'll still get it. For real my cat even knew how to tell me that she wanted her claws trimed I always let.her house what food she wanted after a while she knew what colour is wich taste(no not all cats are red green blind she loved red blankets but no yellow or green) she knew how to ask politely for a taste of human food. We just brought the toy she wanted to play with. Or leyed down on my lap.or headbutted me if she wanted pets. It really is not that hard
@@YukiTheOkami any difference in language creates communication challenges, or communication gap. I'm only guessing, but English is not your native tongue? Can your cat tell you that the reason she wants pets is....?
@@carmudgeon7478 you do know the cat doesn't understand language right? It's just been conditioned. Plus it just hits a button and the owner derives some kind of meaning from it that isn't there.
@@davidm2031 there are other articles about this that tell you bullshit about them being able to easily enough understand English if they're conditioned to, which is a load of shit so be careful about researching the topic, articles want to tell you what 'you want to hear'
The communication and watching him think out his words is mind blowing. I’ve realized how much specific communication my cat gives me that I’m not grasping.
@@RickBomhof And your inability to understand that humans aren't the only one with a high enough iq to understand how to communicate is also mindblowing.
@@MysticWarriorMJ ho ho hoo.Then perhaps you have the same IQ as a cat. See, you understand me, right? And yet you don't seem to understand what i mean.
I love it when you can tell that they're actually thinking it out. When I ask Poppy (dog) where her mousey/bone is, I can see her actually thinking.. then going to get it. Animals are amazing 😊
I'm planning on buying a set of buttons for my current pooch. She already answers me by picking a hand when I give her two choices and hold them up! I really want to give her the freedom to communicate that Russell has. This is lovely to see!
Yeah, I don't see how anyone can deny they're being used to communicate once the animals start using them more frequently and give mostly natural responses to questions.
I like how when pets learn to talk using buttons and are asked a question, they pause everything they are doing for like 5 seconds to process all the sounds they just heard (words) and process that into new words they can use on their buttons
My cats defo understand what I say to them. At 1 point I said that I'm struggling to take care of them (depression and maybe something else). One of them has been looking at me with expectant eyes ever since, follows me everywhere, and jumps on the bed more excessively than before. If I make any noise, wether this is because I'm crying, laughing, talking ir even sneezing for that matter, i betcha a minimum of 2 will be beside me within seconds. Also thanks for your vids. They cheer me up!
Russell you are precious and so smart! I have a cat named Charlie and he will do 'up' for his wet food and he can say 'yes' & 'no' and then he has conversations with me that only he and I can understand! Lol. You and he could definitely have some wonderful conversations!
Does Russell know the buttons by location? Or by the sound they make? If you were to add a second "keyboard" elsewhere.... would he "say" the same things on it?
The language hextiles are sorted, so emotional things like mad and happy will be near each other and toys together and so on. I guess he remembers which ones are which.
if you know billi (billispeaks), they added a button board on the patio so she didn't have to walk inside everytime and she started to combine buttons outside and inside. they also both react to questions, so they definitely know the sound of their words
They know where the buttons are by their location, but they also understand the meaning of the words. If the buttons have letters or pictures on them, they are not going by that
Cats can’t read the words on the buttons. Nor can they process abstract concepts. It’s essentially just a cat pressing buttons hoping to get food because it’s been conditioned that buttons = food or attention
I cannot get over the sweetness that just pours out of him. So cute, so sweet, so very smart. I love him so much❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Maybe have a Russell day, and let him know how much we all adore him❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
❤Dearest Russell & Momma, Thank You so much for sharing your communication lessons with us. You are teaching ALL of us to communicate with each other on whole new levels, I love it! Please keep up this good work, you are making the whole world a much better place❤❤🎉❤❤😊
I was sent here by folks in the comments section of a Billi Speaks video. I was told that Russell is a strict taskmaster. I'll have to see more videos before I can decide... 😺
I seriously understand everything my cat says and vice versa. I’ve had him since he was a measly pound, and I’ve spoken to him like a real boy since day 1. We have a connection that will continue through lifetimes 💗
It's like when someone takes a deep breath and says they are going to remain calm when they are feeling angry. I didn't know cats or any animals had the ability to redirect their emotions or actively change their emotional state.
I was about to log off and turn my phone off if he wouldve left from looking outside and went back to the button to hit play and outside as if you didn't just tell him no to outside😂😂😂😂 unbelievable but so cute
Currently, my cat is lying next to me trying her best to put her paw in my mouth. Even if I could have a meaningful conversation with my cat, I don't think I would want to. I think our relationship works best when we look at each other and just assume we know what each other's thinking rather than knowing for sure. You know. I really don't want to know why she's trying to put her paw in my mouth....
Animals are a lot smarter than we give them credit for. I am fully confident if we gave them the schooling/teaching they would understand, and respond. Even we had to learn how to communicate the way we do.
I am fascinated with these videos. After watching my two cats interact over the last four years, I am convinced that they communicate on a deeper and more complex level than we appreciate. I've watched them make up new games, but seeing a cat being able to express an emotion verbally blows my mind.
If training and button pressing were not involved, that title would take on an entirely new context XD. Russell is adorable and it's amazing how you've taught him how to communicate with you.
Russell is amazing! I find it awesome that you have been able to train him to use words. I'd love to be able to do that with my girl. Just wondering where you got the buttons?
I'd love to see a proper study of this because I just can't believe that a cat understands anything more than [ any button ] = [ a response I will like ]
I love Russell and I love watching the videos! BTW where is his mountable scratcher the gray one that’s usually on the coffee table lol I just bought mine and I came to look at it and it wasn’t there 😂 🐕🐾

Also Russ: "If I express this emotion right now, I may not get feather toy later."
Also also Russ: "pets"

Also Russ: Think I'll randomly touch a button again.
frustrated pressing *pets* *pets* *pets*
lol
I could not tell my baby no THAT many times in a row. ESPECIALLY not after asking what he wanted
Russell: wants violence
Also Russell: chooses love
He resolved his anger so fast😸💕
@@bekindist He really did! I think Russ realizes that with those buttons, his life is now an entire oyster😌🌴🥰

Been heartbroken since

He thought about it but went 'no.. I'll just be with Mommy'
He was only mad for a second then realized he'd rather get pets instead. Smart cat.😅👍🏻👏🏻💗
i thought he was insulting them calling them "pets" as in like he's above them lol
Pets are so much like toddlers! He wants the toy that his brother has, just like kids! Soooo cute!
Oh Russel! What a character 😂 when he presses, but doesn't activate, it's the equivalent of him muttering under his breath
I'm planning on buying a set of buttons for my current pooch. She already answers me by picking a hand when I give her two choices and hold them up! I really want to give her the freedom to communicate that Russell has. This is lovely to see!
Go ahead, waste your money.
This is just too adorable! I would've hugged the stuffing out of that Meow!😘🥰😘💖❣💖
You have got to be kidding me. I was doubtful, until I saw today's episode. Now I'm blown away. Totally! 🐱❤👍🙂
Then you should check out the channel BilliSpeaks. She has come a very long way with the buttons. Super interesting. And of course Bunny the dog too.
This train is just getting started. In a couple years we'll be having press conferences.
@@ThePallidor wow!
This is just so fascinating! Like. There is an eliment of this cat wants to learn these buttons. Otherwise it just doesn't work. Just so amazing.
Yeah, I don't see how anyone can deny they're being used to communicate once the animals start using them more frequently and give mostly natural responses to questions.
Your laughing was so charming when he didn't press "mad" 😄
The cat conversation was impressive, but the lack of cat hair stuck to the bottom of her chair was what really got me.
Russell blows my mind! He is amazing and so sweet.
I like how when pets learn to talk using buttons and are asked a question, they pause everything they are doing for like 5 seconds to process all the sounds they just heard (words) and process that into new words they can use on their buttons
Aww, this is so pure and adorable 💖.
Started watching this cat yesterday and now I cant stop
Russell tends to do that to you.
Teen and Win help too.

Russell has been raised better than lots of kids who would snatch & throw a tantrum over having to wait for the toy they want to play with 🤯👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
All of your babies are precious!

Aww, he melts my heart. Such a smart cat!
Omg, he’s such a smart, handsome, sweet boy! Love him so much!♥️💖❤️🩷🥰
Your Cat is So Cute and Smart!! I Think those talking buttons Are Awesome!! 🤗👍🙏♥️😂😂

Down to his third choice...patient cat!!
"Which of these buttons is the one that results in me getting treats?"

I can't wait to start this with my cat. He's such a character, I can't wait to talk to him. Until then, I'll sit and watch these. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
cats are just like me, they take a long time to answer while their mother keeps asking them about it
I wish i had the time to teach my cat to "talk" to us. These videos are adorable
Such a handsome cat. Love his markings.
Russell is so smart!! He’s very lucky to have you!
Thats 1 smart kitty!!! Adorable 🥰

Russel is sooo flipping awesome! He amazes the feck out of me❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Russ is a intelligent kitty❤
He does the same thing Billi does when he’s thinking about what he wants to say next!
The confirmation bias of stupid people never ceases to amaze me.
Adorable!!! 😍
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, that's cute and adorable, 😍😻thank you❗❕❗❕
this was a pretty cool video.your kitty is really smart.

I love Russell and I love watching the videos! BTW where is his mountable scratcher the gray one that’s usually on the coffee table lol I just bought mine and I came to look at it and it wasn’t there 😂 🐕🐾
You should get another feather toy so they don't have to share/wait 🙂
Gosh - I haven't seen a cat "speak" - only dogs; very cool!
He has earned the feather toy, lol.
My family and I are teaching our cats how to do this and its working so well!
I love this kitty
Russ is such a good boy! ❤️
