Are there cats that don’t meow?

Cats meow to talk to humans, but they hardly meow to other cats.

It’s their way of telling you they need something, like food, attention or wanting to go out.

Sometimes, cats meow when they’re upset or hurting.

Understanding why your cat makes noise and how often helps you know what they want, so you can take care of them better.

Is my cat meowing too much?

Cats can be different: their breed, character, age, and health affect how much they make sounds.

For instance, Siamese cats often chat more than others.

If your usually calm cat suddenly meows a lot for no reason, it’s wise to have them checked by the vet to rule out health problems.

But sometimes, it’s just because they’re bored, lonely, or wanting attention.

They might also meow if they’re anxious because of changes like a new pet or being adopted.
