Cat translator.

A Japanese toy company has come up with a handheld machine that translates your cat's meows and purrs into English, or so it claims. I suppose that, at $75, it's a bargain compared to its similar machine that translates dogs' barks ($125). But can this machine really tell the subtle difference between "Feed me", "Feed me now", "Feed me NOW", and "Feed me right now or else you'll find a surprise the next time you put your black shoes on"?
