Cats chatter for many reasons. Meows, chirps, purrs, growls, and yowls each paint a different mood. Match the sound to the moment: a breakfast meow, a greeting trill, or a stress yowl. Sudden or nonstop vocalizing can hint at pain or illness, so call your vet if it spikes. Listening to tone, context, and body language lets you meet needs faster and deepen your bond.
