There are some behaviors that we assume all cats do, but that’s not the case. Some people don’t sleep 18 hours a daywho does not jump, who does not bring dead animals into the house and even those who don’t purr.
Nothing personal
Some may feel upset if their cat doesn’t purr or the paste on their belly and take it personally. But rest assured: if your cat does not behave like this with you, it is absolutely not because he hates you. Although they can never be compared to dogs, cats know how to show affection and gratitude in their own way even without big frills. And sometimes there just isn’t a why: they just act the way they want. By the way, did you know that cats have a tendency to like people who don’t like them?

No encouragement
A purr is the production of a continuous sound that probably results from the rhythmic movement of the diaphragm and laryngeal muscles opening and closing during deep breathing. Not much more is known except that they are partly voluntary and partly instinctive. Another truth is that there is really nothing that can encourage a cat to purr. It happens or it doesn’t. Some cats may simply make pasta without making a sound or be completely relaxed and engrossed even without getting lost in the comfort of these vibrations.

Mom teaching
We need to know that purrs are very important for puppies who, as soon as they are born, use them to understand where their mother and milk are. But it has also not been shown that cats separated too soon from their mother cat show more or less deficits in purring as adults. That is why their biological mechanism, as well as their true meaning, remain a mystery to this day. No one knows yet when exactly the purr is emitted, and the fact that cats are so inscrutable complicates matters.

Vocal cord issue
If your cat doesn’t purr, it doesn’t mean they are unhappy or have suffered emotional trauma. On the contrary. Some cats do it precisely because they are stressed. And this makes us understand that they are not always an index of approval or a relaxed cat behavior. We don’t even know exactly how they are produced and it is possible that some perfectly healthy specimens have some physiological condition that simply prevents them from producing the classic purr.

Changes in behavior
Domestic cats purr at a frequency of 25 to 150 vibrations per second, so it could also happen that yours purrs very quietly or when you don’t notice it. Some do them only when they are in pain, because they stimulate the release of endorphins and thus help soothe or calm. Other cats, on the other hand, stop making them when they are sick. If your cat has been purring all the time and suddenly it stops, he is showing other changes in behavior or feeding, these are all these signs that something is wrong. In this case, the right thing to do is to contact your veterinarian. If, on the other hand, your puppy has never purred, arm yourself with holy patience, try to develop a strong bond with him, playing together, cuddling him and giving him the right attention, and sooner or later they could arrive.
