                 (This is the other
                      interaction of the subject where the conversations
                      is about consciousness of animals and humans using
                      the cats in the room. Tia has been tasked with
                      asking one of the cats in the room if they plan.
                      She gets the full answer from the cat, the cat’s
                      name as it knows itself in cat language and an
                      insistence that only the cat name be used by Tia
                      instead of the human name, little did we know.)
 
 
 (Tia
                                                  says hi in
                                                  Durondedunn)
 
 Russ: hey love.
 
 Tia: hey. Oh yes,
                                                  expert time.
 
 Russ: okay, does Mongi
                                                  plan?
 
 (Tia speaks to Mongi
                                                  in Durondedunn)
 
 Tia: oh, so we're
                                                  going to talk
                                                  telepathically are we?
                                                  Yes, Mongi does.
 
 Russ: hmmm.
 
 Tia: Mongi plans very
                                                  carefully, very, very
                                                  carefully.
 
 Russ: really?
 
 Tia: part of
                                                  Mongi's.......(speaks
                                                  the cat's name in
                                                  Durondedunn as Hurrah
                                                  at the cat's
                                                  request)....okay......part
                                                  of Hurrah's thought
                                                  process is, "if I sit
                                                  patiently and watch
                                                  and wait and look
                                                  sweet, they will stop
                                                  and pick me up and
                                                  make a fuss of me. If
                                                  I climb up and look
                                                  over the shoulder and
                                                  make not a noise, not
                                                  a sound, do not jump,
                                                  do not dig my claws
                                                  in, they will pick me
                                                  up and make a fuss of
                                                  me and I will return
                                                  the favor by making
                                                  sub-vocal
                                                  oscillations."
 
 Russ: well that
                                                  answers that question.
                                                  Smart cat.
 
 Tia: uh-huh.
 
 Russ: I would put him
                                                  right there in the
                                                  sentient quality then.
 
 Tia: uh-huh, isn’t
                                                  that what Omal said?
                                                  That he is sentient?
 
 Russ: borderline.
 
 Tia: uh-huh. I think
                                                  as Hurrah grows,
                                                  Hurrah will be more
                                                  sentient. Now, the
                                                  most sentient cat in
                                                  the house, who would
                                                  you think that is?
 
 Russ: well it would be
                                                  the heavy-footed lady
                                                  up there.
 
 Tia: yes.
 
 Russ: the oldest cat
                                                  in the house.
 
 Tia: why?
 
 Russ: eldest cat in
                                                  the house, lived the
                                                  longest, learned the
                                                  most…….
 
 Tia: uh-huh.
 
 Russ: and has Mark for
                                                  an owner.
 
 Tia: and who is the
                                                  most manipulative cat
                                                  in the house which is
                                                  thinking?
 
 Russ: manipulative
                                                  that is thinking, that
                                                  have to be little
                                                  Ganja here.
 
 Tia: no.
 
 Russ: no. Same one as
                                                  upstairs?
 
 Tia: uh-huh, because
                                                  she has Mark wrapped
                                                  around her little
                                                  claw.
 
 Russ: I’ll take your
                                                  word for it, she
                                                  doesn't have me
                                                  wrapped around her
                                                  claw that’s for sure.
 
 Tia: well she’s only
                                                  concerned with one
                                                  person.
 
 Russ: right.
 
 Tia: so she
                                                  manipulates that one
                                                  person and has that
                                                  one person wrapped
                                                  around her little
                                                  claw.
 
 Russ: hmm okay.
 
 Tia: yes I love you
                                                  too Mongi. Sorry,
                                                  Hurrah. So you see?
 
 Russ: uh-huh.
 
 Tia: with, we have
                                                  four felines in here
                                                  now?
 
 Russ: uh-huh.
 
 Tia: we have lots of
                                                  feline energy. Okay,
                                                  in the sentient level,
                                                  number one, number
                                                  two, Ganja and Hurrah,
                                                  Calvin number three
                                                  and self-centered,
                                                  egotistical, acting on
                                                  impulse and instinct,
                                                  number four (Pugsley).
 
 Russ: okay.
 
 Tia: we have a tie for
                                                  second. Yes all right.
 
 (Tia says goodbye in
                                                  Durondedunn)
