No, it really is a grunt, like a little pig (I call Caliban my 'nasse-kisse', which means piggy-kitty in Swedish). It's hard to describe if you've never happened to meet a cat who does this. It might be time to make us a sound clip. Roxy snores, and she does this purry sniff-sniff-sniff in my ear when she wants some of my dinner. But I can't say I've ever heard a cat grunt like a pig. Not that I don't believe you, but now I'm curious and want to hear this. Another funny noise is if a cat meows while scratching an itch. The result is "Meow..ow..ow", as if they were trying to bark like a dog. How about when a cat is trotting toward you and going "mow mow mow mow mow" with every footfall? -- Joyce ^..^ (To email me, remove the X's from my user name.) |

Hi Joyce, My best friends cat, Bruno, would do that as he came down the stairs to greet you... mew, mew, mew, mew with each step, I thought that was precious... :-) |
