I would like to point out the superhelpful answers to this wonderfully bizarre question:

That's a good question, meow, but meow can't really say, meow. Here, let meow Google that meow meow.

If I ever got a cat and a dog at the same time, they would be named Meowrio and Bow-wow-ser. That is all.

We have this clock that plays a different American songbird song each hour. We had to take it off the wall because Roswell was determined to hunt it and kill it. It's currently face-down in a place he can't knock it off of.

No - five o'clock on this one! And two of the birds are reversed: when it's mockingbird hour (2 o'clock), the clock plays mourning dove (7 o'clock) and vice versa.

It's very confusing! Mostly, we go by the ack-ack-ack noise the cat makes when the clock sings!
If by assemble you mean "look at the cat making ack-ack-ack noises."

Yes, that makes sense. It's just that we had one of those clocks in a house my family used to stay in on vacations and we would assemble at the call of the Tufted Titmouse so it is a bit perplexing to me when other families have different ways of doing things.

There have been advances in meowlectronics since then. My husband and I have gotten the Meowsic as a gift for two people now—each keypress plays "meow!" in a different tone. You can easily play the Meow Mix song on it, for instance.
