Pet Fact #16: Dogs have 10 different vocalizations . . . Cats have 100!

If you thought you had a chatty cat-ty, you’re right! Our four-legged friends use different sounds to communicate their feelings such as contentment, ease, worry, fear, and anger. Their most frequent vocalizations are meows, purrs, distress calls (kittens under 1 month), trills, hisses, howls, yowls, snarls, chatter, and screams.
