If this cat is actually saying "yeaaaaah!!" then the world is a good place

We can always use more talking kitties.

In this week's cat video news, one Instagram kitty may possibly possess the power to speak—or at the very least, let out a very excited meow.

Submitted by Instagram user laasaraaa and posted to catswiththeirtonguesout on February 19th, this video shows the kitty enthusiastically meowing "yeaaaah!!" when its owner asks. It even repeats it back in the same tune as its human.

There have been plenty of videos of cats "talking," either with really human sounding meows or well-edited syncs. This kitty's "yeaaaah!!" sounds meow-y enough to be the real thing though.

We hope that this cat's meow is genuine and not an edit, because frankly, the world needs more talking cats.
