Story

When Ziggy was being too loud, I would tell him 'quiet, you're too loud'. One day I took him outside with me and a bluejay was really squawking at him for a long time. Finally Ziggy turned and looked right at the jay saying 'QUIET,TOO LOUD'. Another time I dropped a can of food on the stove making a startling noise and he said 'TOO LOUD' which proves he knew the true meanings of these words.
