Elidibus tilts his head a bit. Frumpkin is pretty much left be, since the feline is obviously not interested in being inclined to participate other than perhaps visually.
Caleb gets his answer quickly enough. "Yes, though it's a product of my birthright than what the SCA or the train provides." Elidibus considers momentarily before adding, "With normal beasts, there is a difference. But you have not lost the level of intelligence you possessed with the transformation. It is much the same as speaking to you in your natural form."
"Pray, tell me more about your... familiar was it? This is not a creature born of your aether." This appears to be a statement of fact than a question. "Rather some... Fae in a beast's form? A being in its own right?"
