What does cat’s purring mean?
• They demand attention (either owner’s or vet’s).
• They are hungry. This is when purring comes together with meowing.
• Tiny kittens purr to inform their mother they feel safe.
• Purring makes their wounds heal faster. Vets noticed that if one cat is injured, others around would lie down and purr. Such purr-treatment is believed to accelerate the soft tissue and bone regeneration process.
• This pleasant sound is to encourage people to take care of their pets.
