I have 7 cats now and have had had 15 cats in my life. My whole extended family has always had lots of cats.

Two things stick out at me:

1) Cats really do respond to being talked to and interacted with. Cats that are talked to often get more responsive and communicative.

2) There is huge genetic IQ gaps, lol. Some cats are so smart they blow your mind, others are mouth breathers. The normal distribution is real.
