Cat is making funny noise.

Both of my cats love laser pointer, whenever I point the laser pointer to the celling grey cat will make some funny noise like akakakakakaka....akakakakaka....akakakaka. Any idea what he is trying to accomplish?

I think it's just a stalking noise, my cats do it to squirrels sometimes, but I don't know why .

one of my boys i used to have used to do that when he was thinking about attacking something......be it a toy, or a squirrel that was outside the window, or my foot. I'm pretty sure it's just a growl type noise.

Is this accompanied by a very intense look and tail swishing? If so, I agree with the previous post....it's a behavior that cats do when they see prey but can't get at it. It's called chattering. There's another term used also, but I can't think of it at the moment.

Rocky does it too, and I've only heard it when I point the laser pointer at the ceiling.

Jackson does the EXACT same thing with the laser pointer...Doesn't need to be at the ceiling, anywhere and he makes that noise, and actually after awhile of playing he will start tp pant...Wierd? I wonder if he only does that!

I can never figure out who is more entertained by the laser pointer, me or the cats?? It is always funny how hard they try to catch the laser but never can!

Oh that sounds adorable!! My cat just stares at prey she can't get with her eyes all wide and dilated..that's pretty cute too.

it is good to know that my cat is not alone, it is funny 2 cats act totally different. Grey cat will chatter and white cat will just jump try to catch.

My Rosie is famous for chatting like that!.
