A MAN claims his pet cat is a bit too brainy for his own good and can speak English - a total of seven different words so far, including the F-word. Robert 'RJ' Duncan, of Palmerston, in the Northern Territory says his budgie Picininny can also speak. But when the Northern Territory News first visited the ex-boxer, 34, and his wife Sandra, 32, at their home, the house-bound moggie grumpily declined to comment. Instead he scratched Mr Duncan a few times before bolting to his bedroom and barricading himself in his cupboard. But during a second visit, Mischief was much friendlier. And more talkative. All gathered heard him speak to Sandra, calling her "mum''. Mr Duncan said the two-year-old cat - which he and his wife adopted from his feral mother in Katherine - was most vocal at night.
"He starts mouthing off when he wants his food - when we start cooking,'' he said. "He can say seven words all up: mum, no, now, what, f--k, pr--k and why. "He can't say 'dad' yet, which is a bit of a pr--k. That's how he got the word 'pr--k' I reckon, because I say it a lot.''

Sticking "Mischief" in the bath is bound to make him reveal some fruity language ... or maybe not / Fiona Morrison
I Swear....!
That man needs to hire more staff for the cat
“Raum, is that you?”
I had an Airedale I taught to say 45 words. He could almost complete a sentence. Then a dog food company got to him and paid him to shut up.
ping - not enough staff
LoL
My old Crookedtail cat gave me a few sentences this morning when he wanted me to get up and let him outside. I sweasr he thinks he’s saying words, complete with ups and downs in his yowling, stops, starts, emphasis and fade out. What is even more funny is when he blesses out the younger cat, Goose, when he pukes up food from eating too fast!
First contact the press, then decide to film the cat. Hmmm.
I’ve heard members of the pocketDuce demographic swear also
“In the evening time, if you don't drop whatever you're doing and pay attention to him, he calls you ‘f—king pr—k’.
“If he really cracks the sh-ts, he'll piss in his drinking water just to let you know he's really sh—ty.”
I just love reading the news from Down Under. I was in New Zealand one time when a local company hire to pump out some porta-potties had a little problem. Seems the Aussie they hired wasn't very bright (in NZ that goes without saying), and ended up pumping the waste into Lake Wakatipu instead of a holding tank. Headline that morning? “Yeah - We Dumped Shit In The Lake”. LOL! I've still got that paper somewhere.

Mine only curses when I wake him up.
