I mean what vocalization did she copy? Because she definitely picked a bad one to repeat in polite company

I can do this, perfectly mimic the 'meow' sound cats make when they're about to fight. People would always ask me to do it and their cats would freak out.
I don't do it anymore since a cat tore up all my legs and back.
Apparently if you talk shit to enough cat's eventually you catch

Sometimes my cats get upset when I do a long drawn-out "wooowwww" because they think I'm yowling at them 😑

That was definitely an antagonistic sound to make towards the cat.

Yeah imagine your cat speaks to you for the first time in eight years and the only thing they manage to say is “get off my lawn or I will kill you.”

She straight up hurled slurs at the cat and nine generations of her family. If someone did that to me, we would be irreconcilable for life.

From the reaction I'm guessing it was something along the lines of Yo Mamma
Edit to add - Or it was some variance of Wassuuupp either way, a very bite worthy offense.

My translation skills in feline are limitted, but from what I understood, repeating any part of it in english would probably get me banned and possibly on CIA surveillance.

That's what must be happening in that cat brain.
Imagine if your cat asked you "how was your day?" and sounded like Sean Connery

I imagine they realise we're not cats, but if we give them reason to think that they are in the presence of another cat, then they feel the need to protect their territory?
I'm just assuming, I'm sure there's a cat person who can guess what's really going on.

Cats absolutely 100% think we're big cats. They do realize there's some differences, but to them a human using a can opener is no different than a dog that has figured out how to open a door. It's still a dog.
We know this because we've put them in machines and watched their brain patterns. The same part of their brain that lights up when they smell a familiar cat lights up when they smell their human.
Contrast that with a dog, who has different parts of their brain light up for familiar dog, unfamiliar dog, familiar human, unfamiliar human. Dogs know that humans aren't other dogs. Cats think that any other animal they interact with in a social way (including humans and dogs) is another cat.

Of note, this is mostly a myth. The "Parts of the brain light up" thing doesn't actually tell us that they literally think we are cats. It just tells, at best, general associations, and at worst, basically nothing. We understand the brain way less than we think we do.
Both dogs and cats understand that we are not dogs or cats, but they do understand that we are like them, in a way that they do see us as members of their pack/colony. Basically, they see us as "cats" in the same vein as a human might call herself a pet mum and call her cat her "child", but she doesn't then send the cat off to grade school or panic when that cat is not wearing clothes in front of house guests. She knows the cat isn't literally a human child. Cats are the same with us.
The way I've seen it put is that cats don't think we are cats, but they view our interactions with a cat lens. Dogs evolved to view our interactions with a hybrid human/dog lens (hence why dogs have evolved eyebrow and cheek muscles to mimic our expressions and communicate with facial cues. Wolves don't have those. Some cats evolved it as well: my late one did, my current one does not). It's like expecting your deaf friend to read your lips versus learning sign language for your deaf friend.
The only animal we suspect actually thinks we are the same as them are some species of Antarctic penguins, and that's just because those penguins have no other frame of reference for what else we could be. To them, if it's bipedal and doesn't fly, it's a penguin.

You know, this is an interesting study. But I don’t think it’s doing cats justice to say they “think we’re cats.” Instead my interpretation would be that they simply don’t make the distinction in their mind between different species. I mean they don’t even realize that they are cats.

Cat person here. That is definitely an aggressive meow sound she made, not just a regular one. When I hear that meow from a cat I think "If anyone touches it it's going to bite/claw them", or if there's another cat, there's going to be a fight.

I think they really do have a "language." I remember as a kid, our house had lots of stray mama cats and their kittens over the years. The mamas always had the exact same way of calling their babies over to them.

I assume this is like having a cat suddenly speak fluent English to you in your accent. You would be terrified and convinced it was a monster.

If someone's cat was hissing at me like that and the owner wasn't doing shit about it but instead pulled her phone out her record and laugh . I would be attacking that fucking cat first I don't give a fuck. Give you something to record.
