NO. I do the same thing with Libby. My dog. She gives good advice.
-
Not weird to me. I talk and sing to my dogs constantly. They often respond. :)
-
I talk to my daughters cat. Pets are therapeutic. She has never answered me except for an occasional meow. It's not weird.
-
yes many times.
-
No, it is not weird. I sometimes talk to my cats, but I am not waiting for an answer. It is something kind of similar to talking to myself.
-
I certainly talk to the cats. Sometimes they meow back, and they do recognise certain words (like walk and dinner). Not weird at all in my book.
-
Yes. I dance with them too and they like it.
-
I talk to my dog, and I think sometimes I can tell what he wants. I had better communication with my other dog, but she passed on.
-
I talk to them all the time I sing to them occasionally. They told me not to pursue a singing career.
-
Sure, all the time. I talk to them and sing to them. They respond, too. I think this is perfectly normal behavior for pet-owners. Pets are our babies!
-
We do all of the time. Talk to them, sing to them... and the way the look at us and "talk" back, I think they totally understand us. The only time they don't seem to listen is when they are doing something they shouldn't....just like human children do! They ARE our kids, after all!
-
Yes I do. And, they sometimes meow or bark back. I has a Siamese that would almost have entire conversations with me.

There is nothing weird about this at all. Phoebe, my cat, is as conversational as any animal I have ever known. They all will 'talk' with you if they trust you. And just like relationships with people as they get to know you they will be more comfortable and easier to talk to/with. I find 'dumb' animals quite amazing. People who think animals are somehow not cognizant of their humans and what goes on around them are mistaken. Animals are probably better in touch with their world than we are with ours.
-
ABSOLUTELY NOT. Interspecies communication is common...
-
Not weird at all. I talk to my dogs all the time, and they do understand a good share of what I say. I think just about anyone with pets talks to them.
