Speculation With just how many possible combinations there are, you probably say a never-before-uttered sentence every day.

Especially true when you have young children.

I have cat kids and I'd never thought I'd have to say this but

"Leave your sister's butthole alone!"

You didn't have to say it. The cats don't understand you so you saying it didn't accomplish anything anyway.

Depending on characteristics/how they were raised they very much well can know even if they don't fully understand english they can understand the tone and other thangs :b

Yeah, that's not true, I give my my cat disapproving looks when he's on the table and he gets down, I tell him down, he gets down, I snap he gets down, I point down, he gets down.

And my other cats come when you call them by name

I think they meant your cats don't understand the exact words. That you could've said "grass is green, but Shrek is greener" in a disapproving way and it would've resulted in the same outcome.

In my experience, cats always know more than you think they do.
