Cat Communication

So, thanks to Janice for this one. 

A study by animal behavior researchers in Batesville* shows that cats are expressive. By which they don't means half a dozen expressions but more like 276. A good example of scientists 'discovering' something pretty much all cat-lovers already knew.

The main gap in this project is that they didn't expand it to include cat interacting w. people

Here's the link.
