A Purring Cat Is More Than Just A Happy Cat

Everybody knows how good it makes us feel to be around a cat that is purring. But have you ever really thought about what causes this phenomenon?

Some new information provided by respected veterinarians, Doctors Foster and Smith, provide some more nuanced information about purring cats. If you want to learn more about what REALLY gets your cat’s motor running, read on!

Most pet owners interpret a purring, squinting cat as an obvious indication that their pet is both happy and healthy. They think that the purr always expresses contentment, showing that the cat is comfortable and feels secure.
