Kitten Sounds And Their Meaning

From the classic “meow” to a wide range of purrs and yowls, your little kitten uses her natural voice to make a huge variety of sounds – more than most other animals, in fact.

Kitten's Body Language Signals

Your little kitten might look like a cute little bundle of fluff, but she’ll do anything she can to avoid a fight.

Cat's Tail Signals
