Medical reasons for not purring?
Hi, first-time poster here. I adopted a 3-year-old cat about five
months ago and have been trying to figure out why he doesn't purr. He's a very affectionate cat, doesn't seem at all traumatized. But he simply doesn't purr. He does make a bit of a squeaky noise every now and again, but it's not at all consistent. I'm wondering: Has anyone ever heard of any medical reasons why cats don't purr? I'm afraid he may have been injured before I adopted him ... Thanks!

That's all there is to it. Individual differences.
