why do some cats coo
Here are some of my favorite cat sounds and what they mean. Letâs start with the basics. 1. The meow. Kittens are much more likely to meow than adults. Because kittens are born unable to hear and see, they meow to alert their mother that they need attention. So, why is your adult cat meowing? Adult cats rarely meow at each other, but they may meow at us for the same reasons. (Humans sometimes meow at each other, but itâs usually for laughs.) Check out this kitten crying for its mother.
