Cats are cunning; they like to control their environment. Cats don’t purr for other cats; they purr for people.
A study in England tries to sort out purrs: those that show contentment; those that say “I’m hungry. Feed me.”
Do you need a computer to show the wavelengths or can you tell the difference just by listening to your cat?

I've always said cats are very, very smart...Smarter than most think.....I LUV EM'!
Thanks for the very cute cat video and information..
Thank you!
I once listed "helping cats purr" as a skill on a job application.
I loved the video and the picture. One of my kitties purrs super loud when he is nervous. I set him down on the vet's table and I think you can hear hom in the waiting room!
My car never purrs when she is unhappy! She meows loud and clear for food ..when I pull her hair by accident (when combing the snarls out!) her purr is definately a contented one....when she gets in my bed for her final petting 'sesssion'!!
I am happy when my cats purr.
Thank you
