I've known of two mute kitties in my life, but neither were always that way.

The first was my mom's cat from way back before I was born. She was injured when my mom's boyfriend threw her against a chair and broke her larynx. All she could do was croak after that.

Needless to say, mom left that jerk.

The second is my old man, Tinkerbell. He's 13, and over the years, his voice just...disappeared. Now, he just moves his mouth and doesn't make a sound. Its really kinda cute.

Minette, my baby girl tux, has a sweet little kitten meow. Its just the tiniest little thing. Its like she can't meow with the same full throated yowl her part-siamese big brother Ozzie can utter.

My other kitty, Wobbles, isn't very vocal at all. She really just doesn't meow much. When she does, its a tiny little "meh" or a "murrfle".

Ozzie's the only one who really meows. And boy does he ever. CONSTANTLY. Long, drawn out meows. Especially when he's hungry. Minette mews constantly when she wants love.
