Cat Chat - Kitty Communication

by Winston Hill

Don’t know what your cat’s cat chat is telling you? This could very well be the case if you haven’t been around many cat chats. One of the tricks is to pay attention to the animal’s meow. To figure out what they are trying to talk you need to determine what type of meow it is. The Siamese cat is very vocal with their cat chat discussion.

Its In The Purr

Regardless of the breed you can expect all cats to use their “voices”. “Cat chat” is just this animal’s way of communicating what is on their minds by using their “voices”. To pick up the clues about your pet’s feelings you need to pay attention to their “talk”. This would include the cadence of the cat’s voice, pace and differences in frequency, intensity and pitch.

Quicker then normal meows could signal a cat that is anxious or frightened. The slower the pace of the meows could signal that your kitty is confident and relaxed. The meow is only one way that cats use to talk with you.

Unique to the cat family and another way they talk to you is the purr. A content kitty will purr. Some cat behaviorist scientist believe that cats purr when they are ready to be sociable.

Pay Attention

Don’t oversimplify the purr talk. It could also signal a kitty that is in great pain, nervous or feeling uneasy about something. It all needs to be taken into the current context.

It’s all in how they hold the tail as very accurate indicator of their true mood. Pay attention to how they move their tail as well. If you keep in mind that cats are not dogs then you will easily see that a cat wagging his tail is not the same as a dog doing the same thing. When a cat does this it signals confusion or maybe even annoyance of some type.

Conclusion

After reading this article it should be fairly easy to see why us cat owners feel cats are smart and emotional creatures. It has been stated they have the intelligence of a two year old by some animal behaviorist. Your job is to pay attention and be patient. If you are able to do this then you and your cat’s cat chat will be satisfying and most enjoyable.
