Legends and
myths about
the cat exist in many cultures, from the
ancient Egyptians
and
Chinese to
the
Vikings. They
have been both revered and vilified by different cultures.
Cats use more
than one hundred vocalizations and types of body language for
communication, including mewing ("meow" or "miaow"),
purring,
hissing,
growling,
chirping,
clicking, and
grunting.
Cats have even been observed mimicking the calls of
birds. |
