===============================================

Cats purr by modulating the airflow as they breathe using the muscles in their throat and diaphragm. Interesting fact: Domestic cats aren't the only cats who purr. Purring is also done by bobcats, cheetahs, and lynxes.

Purring begins a few days after birth. When kittens suckle, they purr and knead, and Momma Cat may purr as well. Mom will be able to hear and feel the purr, which might be one way kittens convey the urge to continue feeding. "Hey, I'm still here; don't move!" or "I LOVE this!" says the kitty.
