Boo is 17 now but he's always been vocal. I call Yoda "Yodie the Yowler" because she seems to like the sound of her own voice and never shuts up. Creamsicle meows a lot and loudly, partly I think because she's deaf. Coco Puff has so many different sounds, it's as though he's carrying on a conversation w/himself. Specs meow is just plain eerie, very high pitched and he doesn't meow when he wants something, just when he feels like letting it out. Puddy meows when she wants something, period. Same w/Pidgie. Their ages are all over the board, from 3 1/2 to 18 1/2, so go figure.

Cassie is usually most vocal when I come home. The longer I have been away, the more she meows. She also gives me a meow before I set her food in its place for her. If I hug and squeeze her tight, she will let me know she doesn't like that. She also has a sweet little "murrrp" sound. My sister had a cat that was part Siamese, and he was very talkative.

BC has been with me for 6 years and I rarely hear a sound from her. She is still feral, not wanting to be touched by me or another cat. She seems perfectly happy to remain silent.
Shai has started talking to me more in the last year. At first it was a questioning meow occasionally. Now it's a demanding MEOW, PRRRT, and Chrrr, especially when she wants a treat. She talks to me in bed and anytime she wants something. We often have long conversations.:rolleyes:
Mooch has finally found his voice, too. He walks around the house at night making various sounds, including chirps and chatters. Five years ago he was absolutely silent.
Joey on the other hand, came to me last October talking up a storm. He was loud and had a variety of yowls and moans that would get your attention every time. Now that he has settled in, he has a very tiny, baby meow.:confused:
Tux wanders the house crying like he's looking for his lost best friend. He's done this for 3 years. It's the only time I hear anything from him. He sounds so sad.
The rest of the cats don't seem to be talkers. I only hear an occasional questioning meow.
I love to hear all of the different sounds they make. I just wish I could figure out what they're saying!

Cocoa Kitty was a very quiet boy when I got him, but he has been communicating more because he sees he can get stuff! He asks to have doors open and of course, pleads for food!

Ripley was a vocal cat until I started bringing other cats in when he was 10 years old but now at 16 he is back to being very vocal. He mostly grunts and whines to let me know what he wants - fresh water, out to the garage, food, brushing, petting - you name it the boy has a noise for it.
In Ripley's case age has made him a very noisey boy.
