my cat does assesment trs!!

[Claire Swazey]

Well, they do stare a lot...

Yep, It's true. I had put my cat's food out and was walking back from tossing the can in the trash when he crossed the lawn, and his meow had the perfect lilt at the end. He was obviously asking if his food was there so I answered with a meow with a down lilt at the end. He passed me and was trotting in front of me when he got wind of it and dashed to the bowl.

Has anybody else noticed their pets using trs? Other scino tech?

Recently got a kitten who I think is OSA. His idea of play is to draw blood.

However, he is as willing to play with a sock puppet as he is with a real person.

He , apparently, can't tell one from the other.

One of my cat has TR3 down to a T. Oh yeah...when he wants something he wont stop bugging me until he gets it and I did'nt even made him do TRs. Its natural

I don't know what an assessment tr is, so I have no clue what Mimsey is talking about,

Well, Lurker 5 when you are assessing a list of questions or items on the meter, the idea is to make it sound like a question. Lets take this question: Have you ever failed to pet your cat? the at of cat should slightly go up in pitch (aka an up lilt) Listen to how people ask questions - you'll hear it there.

Hubbard's theory is if you didn't have this lilt, this raising of pitch, you might not get a read on the meter. After all, what would Scientology be without meter reads? So auditors would use practice questions "today has there been an upset?" and practice items "is your favorite fruit cherries? Peaches? Figs?" Apples? Bananas?" while a person holds the cans and another, the coach, watches the meter, the way the person doing the drill executes it, and listens and "coaches" the person to improve.

It just struck me when the cat was asking me: Meow? He was asking: is my dinner ready? with perfect TR's, I got his intention, perfectly. So, I think I'll get out my meter and train him to be an auditor:

CAT
Meow?

Mimsey
What do you mean? Why are you asking if I have a withhold from you?

CAT
Meow!

Mimsey
Oh .... well. your cat toy...

CAT
Meow?

Long pause as Mimsey fiddles with the cans

CAT
Meow?

You get the idea?
