Now I’m not a cat person, and this post isn’t exactly about a professional translation device, but if you need to know what your cat is saying to you, this is for you. You hold this cute device next to your cat as it meows. The palm-sized gadget will then interpret what your cats meows and purrs really mean.

The problem with this device is that it may crush our lucrative cat interpretation business. I’m really upset about this. I mean, as a business owner, how can we compete with these cute pink hand-held devices? Read more.

The hand-held Meowlingual device is shaped like a cat, with stylish design lines and a compact size designed to fit easily in the palm of a hand… The Meowlingual has the microphone built into the handheld unit. The cat owner uses Meowlingual to, in effect, “interview” his or her feline companion from close range.

Meow Translation: The Translation function analyzes your cat’s meows to determine which of six emotions it is feeling. Meowlingual then provides a phrase matched to the emotion.

The six emotions and some sample phrases:

• Happy: I can’t keep my happiness bottled up!!!
• Angry or Afraid: You better watch it, I fight like a tiger!
• Needy: like it when you scratch my neck (hint hint).
• Satisfied: That’s Purrrrfect!
• Assertive/Showing Off: Hey, a little attention here please!
• Amorous: Can you introduce me to a nice kitty-cat?

And while we’re at it, I just came across this Cat Translation Dictionary which could come in handy for some…

miaowbu	Feed me.
meeow	Pet me.
mrooww	I love you

…It goes on from there. Click here for more of this handy dictionary.
