When we were taking one of my cats to the vet, she constantly meowed in her crate. Then, my bird, a cockatile, decided she wanted to meow, which she did succesfully. Also, my bird has picked up the telephone sound and does a surprisingly good impression. Since we allways "pay attention" to the phone, she starts ringing like crazy when she wants to be taken out of her cage etc. Also, my kitten has a habit of knocking food out of her dish and batting it under the refridgerator.
