That's the sound of Cato the Elder ending a senate meeting. Cato was born to a family of cats in 1000 BCE. Early in his life, a human discovered that he could speak human languages and consequently exhibited him in a circus sideshow as "Cato the Elder." This is where Cato got his name. This led Hannibal Barca, Supreme Master of all Carthage, to come to Rome and declare war, resulting in the First Pubic War. Cato died in the first battle of this war and can be seen today in the Pet Cemetary.
