I have been paying attention to how my two cats communicate a desire....

My 20 year old, Sophia, she always comes up to me either onto my lap, then pats my face gently when its time to eat...She also meows loudly at times when I am at my desk, looking straight at me and even will go as far as patting my leg if I am not responding timely....

My other cat Luna...when hungry, she pulls her empty bowl down off the elevated box I keep it on...
