I was doing the laundry last week when I dropped a sock in the cats’ waterbowl.
“Oops,” I announced to anyone who would listen, “I got the cats’ water on daughter’s sock.”
The cat looked round and said: “Miaow.” This probably meant: “Daughter’s sock just fell in my water.”
Depends on your point of view, I guess.

His eye for features isn’t much better. In 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover he mentions maybe barely half a dozen, and all of those are aimed at men.

Miaow can mean any number of things, depending on where the emphasis lies — ie, which syllable is stressed. Also the intensity of the sound ought to be taken into account.
Most likely what your cat’s miaow meant in this context was: “And you expect me to drink that?”

Poor cat.
Good thing WIllow didn’t see it or you’d be in a world of hurt.

LOL cute! Or he could’ve been saying ‘I hope you’re going to give me fresh water after ‘that’ has been dropped into it!’
Or ‘he’s talking to himself again!’
Do you have a cat called Willow, Ed? My cat is called Willow! *spooky*

CLIFF has a cat named Willow, SOoz. The meanestr cat on the planet, according to Cliff. And this one, but I can’t for the life of me remember its name.
