I still call my cats "sweet little itty bitty baby kitties" or some variation. Even though they're almost 3 at this point. They're still my little teeny kittens. And Cael is my little "Caliegh Kitty cutie kitty cat" or whatever I can think of that starts with Cs or Ks.

Sometimes I just babble incoherent syllables at them since I figure they can't understand me anyway, what's the difference.
I also sing the "What does the Fox Say?" song but substitute Fox for Cat and all the other sounds with meows and peeps and purrs.
