My tuxedo, Bushes, does a broken meow when she's hungry. She sounds so pitiful, like she's about to cry. My tabby, Bouja doesn't meow much, she sort of trills her tongue. She has names for all of us - each very distinct! The only time she does a classic meow is when she has a ball in her mouth. Then it's really loud and very startling, mainly because it's so rare. They both chatter their teeth at the birds out the window. I can just read their evil thoughts when they do it!
