Alexa, enable Meow!
16A virtual cat lives within Echo. You can chat with Alexa in cat language; enable the ‘Meow’ skill, and say ‘Alexa, meow’. My cats came running to stare at the speaker. I said meow, my cats answered me, which started Alexa all over. I’m doubled over laughing, eyes running. Hey, it’s a slow day.

bam video
@communist
I played this video and my local Alexa chimed in. The cat and the people and the Echo in the vid were all meowing and also my Echo and I.
Lotsa meowing. Quite a party.
@f00l @communist There ought to be a way to get Google Assistant to chime in. I have a perfectly good Samsung smartphone I’m not using, and a whole bunch of small BT speakers. I may have to stay with OK Google, though.
@OldCatLady
Well Google Assistant is only available on the Pixel and in Allo.
@PlacidPenguin Yup, that’s what it says. I may have to buy a Galaxy S5 to get Nougat for Assistant. Challenge accepted. http://www.techtimes.com/articles/184847/20161105/how-to-get-google-assistant-for-your-smartphone-running-android-7-0-or-android-7-1-nougat.htm

Well yeah, if you want to root. I personally am a fan of it, however, not everyone is, so I don’t always jump immediately to suggesting people root.
@PlacidPenguin I have a rooted Nook and look what just happened to cyanogen mod. Never mind, it’s all toys. http://www.zdnet.com/article/cyanogenmod-is-dead-long-live-lineageos/
@OldCatLady
Already blamed @f00l for that.
