Animal behaviorists and researchers have found that copycats are the real deal. Felines have the habit of adapting both their mannerisms and vocals to mimic the people, animals, or objects within their environment. Adult cats often learn to get what they want from their owners through observational behavior. As scientific as it sounds, most cat owners don't care because they're too focused on their cute copycats.
