(“Indeed human, I happen to be quite fond of you too”) While most people think of purring as a happy sound (which is mostly is!) cats also purr for a variety of other reasons, like: Some cats purr like lawnmowers, while other cat purrs barely register above a low gurgle. (“Stop touching my feet/belly/butt/tail, peon”)Īhh yissss. (“I can see the bottom of my food bowl, are you trying to starve me?”) (“I’ve chewed up all my toys and have nothing left to destroy”) (“Cease your trivial activities and pay attention to me, human”) (Yay?!)Ĭats will meow for a variety of reasons, a sampling of which is listed below: In a way, the presence of their human guardians turn our cats into perpetual babies. Vulnerable kittens meow to call for their mothers, and generally stop once they reach adulthood.
The most common of kitty sounds, meowing is a vocalization that begins in kitten-hood. (Hit the audio button in the bottom-right corner to toggle meow-mania on and off) It goes like this: “meoww.” Sound familiar? I thought it might.
While the range of vocalizations vary from cat to cat, most have at least this one in their arsenal. What the hell are cats trying to tell us, when they’re making all those strange little noises? I’ve gone ahead and channeled my inner cat psychic to give us all an inside look. She makes a beeline for your legs, bonks her little head against your shin and starts meowing up a storm. You’re in the kitchen washing a pile of zucchini, and here comes your cat.
