How would you write out your cat's meow?

Cleo has sort of a merp sound when she purrs. And Zenon has more of a maaarowww to her purr. They both sound so sweet!

Sweetie's is a "mreeow" and sometimes, like when I wake her up by petting her but she's happy, a "mrr-mrmeow?"


And Preciou's meow is a "mrrrrrowww?!!"

What a neat idea for a thread by the way!

a simple mrow.
He usually sounds like he's whining because he wants something.
The more he wants it, the higher pitched his voice gets.

Raphael: Mooooooooowwwwwww! OR MRRRooooooowwwww! Long, loud and forlorn, even if I just fed him 2 hours ago.

Leo: Mrrp! OR Maio! OR Mrrrrrooow! Leo tends to trill inquisitively.

Gracie: Mew! OR Mrp! Very short, soft, monosyllabic mews. She also sighs dramatically when you remove her from places she shouldn't be.

Pretty Gracie is a drama queen.

Pixel says 'murrow'..unless she's wanting me to throw a ball, then it's 'Wowwwww? 'Cable says 'mou' [1 syllable, kinda squeaky] & Java says 'mew' [1 syllable, higher pitched].

Just off hand I know Valory has a loud purr and an "ick, ick" noise she makes when she wants attention. Lil Guy has a mmmrrrrrrr or mmmmeeeerrrrrrrr noise. Kismet doesn't "talk" often, and I'm ashamed
to say I don't know what she sounds like. Something sort of soft and short. (I swear she's not neglected. But with three other cats in the house, she rarely has to tell me anything, because they take care of it for her.) Baby Girl says a demanding "Me-oow!" and runs to the kitchen so I know her food dish is running low. That's about the only time she talks either, but I definitely know what she sounds like.
