Lately, my younger cat Millie has been a cry baby. She meows for everything and sometimes just walks around the house and meows!  She meows when it’s time for me to get up in the morning, she meows when she wants her snacks, she meows when she want to go out on the terrace and “help” me water the plants, she meows when she wants me to turn on the faucet so she can take a drink. (yes she does that too!) As you can see, I cater to her every need.

Meowing is reserved for cats communications with people. They make different sounds such as yowling, hissing or growling to communicate with each other. The amount of meowing varies by breed and even by cat. Oriental breeds, especially Siamese cats, are known as great “talkers,” so anyone who doesn’t like meowing probably should steer clear of these breeds. Some cats just seem to like to hear their own voices, while others seem to want to carry on a conversation with their owners. If your cat is talking a little more than you’d like, try to figure out the cause first. Once you know the reason, you can then work to get your cat to meow less or you can spoil her like I do and cater to her every need!

Remember, your pets count!
