    Well since the meow was invented before the cat box, The little buggers just crapped on the floor, That got their servants attention real quick.

    But "meow" wasn't some artificial invention. It's instinctive behavior.

    MEOW developed and became instinctive because it worked better than spraying on the servant's leg or biting.

    Exactly my point. It was an evolutionary development, not an artificial invention.

    They smacked them with their claws out.

    It isn't "MEOW", its "ME-NOW" (listen closely).  They make this sound to tell humans that they are losing their patience with them.  Their best attention getter is a strategically placed (or timed) hairball.
    Always remember, cats are our overlords (all hail their greatness).  That's why they strut around with their tails in the air, proudly displaying their butts.  It's they're way of saying, "what you see is what you are to us".
