George the tabby cat: real life Hello Kitty or the first of a new feline super-species?

That's the burning question coming from the video above in which George very clearly meows the word "hello" in response to his owner. And like all Internet cats, George seems entirely unimpressed by the prospect of his star turn in a YouTube video.

The video was uploaded Wednesday and by Friday night had more than 60,000 views. No word on how many of those views were cats, learning language at the dawn of a new era.
