we have one that does not meow, also. She makes a squeaking, sort of a
peeping noise. Not common but not a worry. Sometimes amusing.

My cat, Sebastian, is an indoor/outdoor cat. He regularly plays
outside all day and comes in when he wants. But when I got home
today, Sebastian came inside with me and just opened his mouth like he
would when he would meow, but nothing came out. I've never seen him
do this before, usually he's fairly vocal. Its been a few hours now
and he still just acts like he wants to meow, but can't. I'm kind of
concerned, could he have gotten into something outside, or can cats
lose their voice like people do if he overused it while he was
outside? If anyone knows of anything, I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks in advance.

I'd take him to the vet and have him checked out....He could have some
foreign object caught in his throat, and if he does, it could be very
painful and become infected....cats don't have many ways to communicate
their pain to human beings....I have had them die without me knowing that
there was anything wrong with them until it was way too late.......

My mothers cat Chic (9 months)has never meowed, is this strange or normal
with some cats ?
