Humans can be pretty good at exchanging information with only the most subtle body movements.

My cat knows when it's time to go to bed. She also has a form of mind control to help her get snacks, or to have her blanket put onto the sofa.

My cat's are telepathic with each other. If they want something they both stare at me until they get what they want, and somehow I know what they want when they stare at me.
