Oh, I know the video you mean! The black and white cat saying that phrase! I think the males make more varied sounds than the females.

Cats do try to talk and imitate us. We had a cat who would say GOOOING when we took her in the car. One summer on the dock in her cage she wailed NOOOOO...Goooooing.... and freaked us out!

Oreo now says aaawwwww wooooooo to go out. She stands by the door and says this. She also says it when forced to be in her cage, on our long trip up North. Only then it is a plaintive moan type utterance!

And Sheba called me MAAAAA. (she learned this when my son would arrive home from school on the bus or car pool and run in calling maaaaa!. Sheba then would go up to my husband and utter MAAAAA...? when I was a long time gone at work. And he'd say to her "Ma is at work" or "at the store buying food", etc and she would accept that and go back to waiting for me.

Weezie still uses Weeeeeee..uuuu when playing or coming in to see one of us. She has assorted other sounds that are hard to relate by typing...also... she is a very vocal kitty still! We've never had a cat this vocal before!
