I have a cat that chirps! It's the sweetest sound. She usually chirps when she wants to be held. Another one cries and it sounds just like a baby fussing, well to me, anyway. And, one of my cats snarls like a dog when he's...

My cat is not afraid of the vacuum cleaner. How about yours?

For awhile our kitten was terrified by the noise of the vacuum cleaner. And, now she is not. Maybe she is just accustomed to the noise. Cats are funny that way. One minute they hate something and the next minute they don't. My...
