Hear Kitty

Is there anything more symbolic of domesticated contentment than the purr of a cat? If there is we havenâ€t heard of it. If you have a cat then you know just how content your kitty is when they are purring and there is little more rewarding for a cat owner than to bask in the love of an adoring cat.

Yet, this simple act of purring has kept scientists on the edge of pulling out their hair for as long as theyâ€ve been studying our feline friends.

Scientists today cannot figure out how exactly cats manufacture their purring.

Scientists to this day donâ€t have a solid answer down but the leading hypothesis is that cats use the vocal folds in their larynx in order to create the vibrating sounds we interpret as purrs.

Why do domesticated cats all choose to do this? No idea.
