I hope you chat back when she talks to you Of course! I am not a monster! Plus, I think she learned to be talkative from me, I am always talking to the cats.
"Aww, you're so cute/sweet." "Who's a good kitty?" "Awww, what a good girl you are!"
Of course! I am not a monster! Plus, I think she learned to be talkative from me, I am always talking to the cats. :D They do say that cats meow at people and far less so at other cats, so it's entirely possible she did learn it from you.
I also meow back, but I'm fairly certain my accent is atrocious or I'm saying terrible things in cat because half the time they look at me like, "excuse me, WHAT did you just say?"

Everything I have read about cats insists they do not meow at each other or talk at/to each other verbally...my own lived experience says differently. Mia used to cry for Smudge to come to her. She did not want me. She wanted Smudge. Smudge was her best friend/preferred creature long before she decided she liked me. For years, I was content with "Mia is a 'look don't touch' free loading cat, and that's fine."
