I wonder

why do cats purr?
A cats purr begins in its brain.A repetitive neural oscillator sends message to the laryngeal muscles,causing them to twitch at a rate of 25 to 150 vibrations per second.This causes the vocal cords to separate when the cat inhales and exhales.producing a purr.But not all cats can purr.
What does it mean when a cat is purring?
The one humans are most familiar with it's purring cat is purring cat is content and happy but in reality,cats purr for a varitey of reasons and not all of them mean contentment.The cats purr has been compared to the human smile.They may purr when nervous,sick,in pain or even when close to death
