    Cats also use their healing purr on us humans. If ever I've felt ill or had something sore, my cats will curl up with me and use their healing purr. When my son came home after having a major operation his cat wouldn't sit or lie on him like he usually did but instead curled up close to the operation site and purred his head off. My son recovered very quickly (he'd had a kidney transplant). I have no doubt his cat's purr helped. Cats are truly amazing animals.

    I'm 70. I wonder if I hum loudly my bones will become less brittle or become stronger? Maybe snoring counts. 😁 I know I feel like hissing at people sometimes & have been know to growl at times when I'm very aggregated. My back won't arch any longer but I do my best to stretch the other parts. My sigh after a good meal or satisfactory experience, is like their purr. I think mumbling or talking to myself in a low voice could suffice for chattering. I'm sure I could think of more but I digress. 😂
    But on a serious note, these things are great to know. Can you guess, I have a cat? Thank you. Have a blessed day.

  • @AGC828
    @AGC828 3 года назад +5

    Lots of great information about cat sounds...BUT something people should know...and that is dogs and cats CAN get along. Many do famously. We're just taught that cats and dogs dont get along. So we are put or put ourselves in that frame of mind. To keep one's dog away from a cat in a park. I grew up believing that. Till I watched a few RUclips videos over the last few years. Though, these cat and dogs might mostly have been raised together. Still that shows 2 animal species CAN get along. They aren't born to fear or hate the other.

    • @ELBlDu
      @ELBlDu 3 года назад +1

      Anderson: Not so much what we are taught, but what we have observed as the "norm" over time. In most situations cats dont like dogs, they are bigger and frightening. Once they are forced to live together, if the dog shows the cat he isnt going to eat him, and the dog is trustworthy, (in the cats perception) its a beautiful thing when they do bond and become best friends. The younger the animals are when introduced, the better it seems to go. It can happen with Many species who are natural enemies. Its merely survival instincts of the smaller species to RUN........

    A lot of people don't realize just how intelligent cats are...unconditional love is the biggest...so many things
    I get all the stuff I've read here-mine do some of those things too. FYI..ALL cats are noisy at times. I had Persians growing up. We use to show them. So, yeah, they're noisy too!
    I've learned a lot about cats over the years. I can actually communicate with them without saying a word. I've watched their behaviors.Yawning doesn't always mean they're tired--I've learned A LOT of sounds & I use them (I don't know what they all mean, but, I get reactions)...sneezes I do too--eye blinks. My vet told me to keep it up...she said, "Now, if you could only translate to English, we'd really have something!". More than just money, but, we'd be able to help them so much more medically. A LOT sooner than we can now, for sure.

    But one thing I've noticed is that once the cat became 100% comfortable with me, it basically stopped meowing and replaced that sound with chirping. Now all my cat does is either purr or chirp (and chirping seems to mean that the cat is very, very happy). 🐈

    I have had many cats in my life (family cat or my own) and have heard the many sounds of purring (high pitch, low pitch, etc), but the cat I have now has sounds during purring that are unlike any cat from before. It is kool and sounds so awesome! Makes me happy to hear these other purr like sounds along with his normal purring sound. It's kind of like a symphony. How does he do these different sounds all at once? And why in all my years around so many cats is he the only one I heard this from?

      got a 12-14 week old kitten, when it purrs, it makes me think of a gasoline engine with a burned valve, as there is a bit of a "chirp" in the purring. first time i had on that sounds like it needs a valve job.

      Mine too. My short-haired is female is quiet but my long-haired male ginger cat meows when he sees me, when he wants food, when he gets food, when he wants to go out, when he wants anything really. Unfortunately, its such a high pitch that it seems to drill a hole in my head first thing in the morning and find it hard to tolerate his sound. I deliberately avoided the talkative breeds for this reason and am thinking of having my morning coffee in the quiet of my bedroom. The vid was interesting but didnt really help me strategize a way to stop his incessant mewing.

    My torbie only trills/chirps at now. In the off chance she does does meow, it is so high pitched you can barely hear it. However, her purrs are so loud you can hear them in the next room 😂
    Her "sister" is a long haired mini panther, who loves to talk and announce that she's caught one of my dirty socks. The sound is almost like a yowling/crying? But she stops when I've acknowledged her catch.

    My cat has specific meows. Accompanied by a hard stare in my direction there's the one for 'my food dish is empty - please come into the kitchen and fill it'. There's the 'my litter tray needs cleaning NOW'. And there's one very very distinctive meow that means 'I don't feel so good and I'm about to throw up!'

    Cats shape their language around you. Whatever sounds they make is specific to you and when you respond to their needs (my cat makes a very special meow when she's out of food and when I feed her after she makes that meow she remembers to use that meow for the next time she's hungry)
