Hahahahahah! I'm sure that's how it works.
Of course, I also happen to actually speak to my cats, as if they'll listen and speak back. "No, it's only 3:00, it's not time to eat yet." "Why do you need to sing the song of your ancestors at two in the morning? Go to sleep!"
Oh don't worry, I think all cat people do. I talk to mine all the time. They reply. It is just how we are 😊
Oh you know that is so annoying, mine do it too, my older cat has thing horrible sound she makes, she sounds like she's stuck somewhere and it does my head in. It works though and I always get up to go find out what her story is. Silly felines.
