    Cats meow to each other all the time. This is some grade A misinformation right here.

      Watch “Mr. Kitters the Cat”, the guy that straps the camera to his cat and you get to see kitty adventures around the neighborhood. The cats talk to each other all the time.

              Do a search on YouTube for “two cats having a conversation” and you’ll find a bunch of cute ones like that.

      Maybe it’s intentional. I see this quite often as a way to drive engagement. If you post misinformation, a lot of people will rush to correct you. If you post something true and easily agreeable, people might just hit the “Like” button (or do nothing at all) and move on.

        Lies drive engagement. So true. It’s also exactly what’s gotten us into this social media clusterfuck.
