    meows

    Can you tell whcih of your cats are meowing when they are out of your view? do you recognize each ones different sound? Most of the time, I do, but once in a while they fool me.

    Most times I can tell our 4 cats apart by their "meow", and on the same idea, I can tell our 4 dogs apart by their barks.

    Yes, but most people don't believe me so I was beginning to doubt myself. Thanks so much for starting this thread!!!

    AmberLee no need to doubt yourself. I too can distinguish wich Bean is meowing. Both Beans have a distinct YEow.... Besides, a Mother always knows.

    I can always tell too! Tilly still sounds very much like a kitten.. she mews. She also usually purr-meows.. you know, that little trill noise cats make when their mouths are still shut

    I can always tell. All 3 of them have completely different meows. Prema herself has different ways of meowing so we know what she wants, we can tell when she wants cuddles, when she's hungry, when she wants to go out on the balcony or play...

    Sure!! I doubted I was able the first times (as AmberLee said, people made so!) , so took the trouble to check, and there it is, I never made a mistake!!!

    At one time I thought I could tell them apart - but just lately not sure what they've been doing 'cos they've started imitating each other - I swear!!!
    Went dashing to let Dan out the other day and there sat Bagel staring at me as if to say 'That got you moving didn't it!!!!'
    Are they ganging up on me? Theme to twilight zone builds up at this point.....................

    Trevor has sort of a bass tone meow, while Andy meows in soprano! They are very easy to tell apart!

    Yup, I could tell my two cats apart no problem at all. To me they sounded very different.

    Butter has that loud Siamese sounding "Yeooowwww". It is easy to tell him from Mimi's little squeak. She hardly ever meows! Spends most of her noisemaking time purring loudly!!!

    Different sounds

    My two, even though they are brother and sister, do have different meows. I can't tell them apart when they are sleeping in bed with me or fighting, but when they are meowing, I surely can tell the difference. The male cat is much louder and persistant and the female is much softer and gives up eventually!

    Oh yes, I can tell. Our Clarice calls to my sister and I as she did her kittens, w/ everyone else it's a 'normal' meow. Tinker talks and talks and talks and talks and....couldn't forget her voice if ya wanted to! lol

    Max and Tom never did the short meow...they ALWAYS did the whole 'tom cat' rrrrrr-ow ('ow' with an 'r' at the front) and it was ALWAYS loud and long!
