For me, the first one does not get me much at all or if she does, she hides it well. The only area I would say she understands what I am talking about is when I talk about the dog. She has said she is very attached to her own pet.
The second one is at least better at understanding what I am saying when I talk - she is better read and more academic. In a perverse twist - pets are a thing the second one does not get at all.
