Is it not the best feeling when your feline hops onto your lap and cuddles right into your arms? When this wonderful creature starts purring, you feel even more content thinking that your pet is happy. Cats purr when they are happy, when they want your attention and for multiple other reasons. Not only domestic cats purr – some wild cats have the same ability. Among wild cats, purring is used for communicating and comforting.
Not all of the reasons domestic cats purr are as pleasing as you think. When cats are in the presence of another cat, it can purely be a form of greeting. Cats also purr to attract the attention of their owners. Studies have shown that a certain pitch in their purring is purely to irritate their owners, asking for attention and to indicate when it is time to be fed. Sometimes cats even purr to ensure they receive their food faster.
