A cat's mewing is joy or punishment?

When acquiring a kitten, be prepared for the fact that together with the beginning of the educational process in relation to the small pet, all the troubles associated with this, your fluffy lump will do the same - it will also take care of your re-education. Yes, indeed, cats are very clever pets and they are already starting, we can say, from an infant age, they learn that meowing can achieve what they want. So why not take advantage of this for your own purposes, along the way honing the behavior of the owners, making them obedient and quickly fulfilling any desire of the pet? The cat's mewing - what are the sounds produced by our pets in a wide sound range, ranging from 75 to 1550 Hz?

Every attentive owner of a cat or cat is able to discern what exactly he or she wants at one time or another. To help the novice owners give a brief description, a kind of classification of what the mewing of a cat can mean.

Loud demanding "meow"

You do not have to be seven wits in the forehead in order to understand the demand that sounds in a loud voice that literally translates from a cat's fare as: immediately give the prescribed portion of lunch / let it out for a walk / bring my tray in the right kind / just stroke my fur / yes play with me! And apart from the demanding voice, the pose of the animal, which does not suffer and the slightest delay, is quite eloquent.

Almost inaudible, silent mewing of the cat

To interpret a gentle "meow" is not difficult. A self-aware animal, not deprived of the love of the owners, in this way draws attention to its very uncommon and dear person. In addition, a quiet voice can mean a neat unobtrusive request for something that you really want, but not always, well, it's never possible to get it. For example, such a gentle "meow" can sound during your family dinner. When the owners indulge their pets, the cat knows in advance that, in the end, your heart will quake, and you will not stand in front of the so charmingly sounded request and treat your pet with a tasty morsel.

Howling - the mewing of a cat, signifying danger, pain, extreme distress

React to such sounds is necessary immediately, as this can mean severe pain, injury, or very severe stress. Whenever there are no symptoms named above, and a cunning animal tries to attract your attention in this way - you must ignore this voice manifestation from the very beginning. Otherwise, your cat will continue to practice such a voice tactic, turning your life into an intolerable torture howling, and in every way.

Battle Shout

This sound is hard to confuse with any other. How to treat this? Why does the cat scream during and before the fight? The explanation is simple - an animal, like a ninja, tries to bring fear to an opponent with a loud oro. The spiteful mewing of cats during the fight demonstrates aggression in the behavior of the fighters.

Hiss

In such an uncomplicated way a cat signals that at the present time it can not be touched, invaded its territory, and in general it is just necessary to leave it alone for a while. Usually, these animals react to dogs, other cats or tired of their excessive attention of people. Also hiss is a harbinger of a beginning fight. Neglected such an expressive sign provides deep scratches and bites.

Meow of a kitten

The thin voice of a kitten seeking a mother sounds loud, plaintive and piercing. Perhaps, this meowing is the most touching and leaves few people indifferent.

If in the morning you hear a short "mur-mur" - know that this charming creature welcomes you. For example, it is rather hilarious to observe how a cat sitting on a windowsill watching turtledoves or other birds emits a "m-m-m-m" sound that is characteristic only for this case, and at the same time his chin is shaking funny. The nature of cat sounds is very diverse. Be ready to learn a variety of signals, because they are designed specifically for you - among themselves cats communicate in a completely different range, not always audible to the human ear.
