Most cats purr at around 25 decibels but Smokey's unusual miaowing averages an amazing 80 decibels when measured from a metre and a half away.

When measured close up her feline sounds reach an incredible 92 decibels, equivalent to the noise of a lawnmower, hair dryer or a Boeing 737 coming into land.
The clip of Smokey's purr sounds like a bird!

She does sound like she's got a dove stuck in her throat! And I thought Wiggies was annoyingly loud...

I read the link about Charlie the "Volde-mog" cat. Poor old guy, he looks such a sweetie. I'm glad he's got a nice new owner.

Abby came running....and meowing!

That's the sound Spencer makes when he's walking around looking for me. I didn't know how to describe it, but "dove-like" sounds about right.

Awww, she has such a beautiful face! I love her nose
Lol, Utu and Kuura came running to check out who and where is the mystic purr coming from. Specially Utu seems very pleased about this.

Hahaha it's so cute how Abby, Utu, and Kuura went to investigate the dove-like sound!

Yes, I read the "Volde-mog" cat article too and it's really nice that he found a loving owner.
