I know, strange question in a sense, but let me elaborate...


Noises such as the type of meows or sounds your cat makes out of his or hers mouth.
 

For example:
 

Morgana doesn't tend to ever do a 'proper' full meow (The only time she does is when she knows food is coming, and even then it isn't really an entire one - just sort of delicate/quiet, short and raspy) otherwise, her normal everyday sound is a "Rooo,rooo", when she does things like follow me around, wants something, curious etc.

Camelot has more full own very load meows, but they only come out when he really really wants something. His normal everyday sound is reminiscent of a small lawn mower.

They have always been like this!

Just curious if any one else has "unusual" sounding cats, or cats with cute sounds, normal sounds, or even purely quiet ones with no sounds at all, and so forth. So, what is your cat(s) like in the meow/chatty department?

Abby announces herself while carrying a rolled up pair of socks in her mouth and saying "MRRROWWW! MRRRROWWW!"  etc.  All the while I'm calling her until she finds me.  At other times she almost barks. And at other times she literally sounds like she's saying "meow!"

Katie's meow sounds like "Meep!"

Spencer has a growling sounding chirp; basically from his throat.  But it isn't loud.  He's a big boy but his meow sounds wimpy!  LOL

My kitty does this "Waaawarrr Waaawaarr" in a pitchy voice.
 It's his daily bossy voice, for food, cuddle demand, or when he sees an animal from outside the window.

My friends cat is a super silent one, barely ever meows. Just does this small honking sound when it is sup time!

Alice has a raspy meow that she uses when she wants attention.  She also does the chattering at birds outside.

Patches does the chirping when he's excited.  Usually right before he mounts Alice.  They are both fixed but you would swear they are in the process of making kittens.  Afterwards Patches even cleans himself down there, like the kitty version of having a cigarette.

Parker has a broken meow. The first part comes out normal but by the end of the "meow" it's all breathy sounding. Its like "Mrr-ahh" the "ahh" being the breathy part. He also yells "hello" when he thinks he is alone.
