Which is "chattier"?

That raises an interesting point. However, in my house, both Emmy and Samson were shelter rescues. Like I said, Emmy just doesn't shut up (not that I really want her to), but Samson very seldom meows. In fact, when he does, it sounds more like a squeak.
Ranger was a "free to good home" cat and he only meows to demand something (usually ice cream). And that is the sound of his meow........more like he's saying "NOW!" He sounds like he's "yelling" his meow!
The one thing I have noticed with my chatty Emmy, is she's getting more chatty as she gets older, and she's only 6!
Thanks everyone who has already voted! But it's definitely looking like females are definitely more talkative, however, there's still a couple of weeks of voting left.

Ari is more of the talker here, Topaz only says something when she wants breakfast.

Of past cats, our males were the conversationalists while the girls only talked if it was important - like the time Sheba gave her mate "what for" the time he stayed out all night. I'm sure Solomon's ear hairs were singed by the time she finished. (And it was a good month before she would stop threatening him with physical punishment! )

I have three very quiet kitties (Katie, Pete and Claire). Then there's Gracie. She talks enough for all of them, and can be downright bossy at times!

My boy is much chattier than my girl! But he is part Siamese and I have heard that they are very chatty.

Katie loves to talk to me, she keeps me filled about all the gossip.

My chattier ones were both boys. One was part Siamese and the other a Burmese. My dshs (2 girls & 1 boy) were not chatty.

Zakk is pretty darn loud when he wants to be. I heard about his breakfast yesterday morning. Suzie talks more than her brother, and she sorta murbles. Rocky is the quietest, but he also whines a lot when trying to get attention.

Joey never shuts up neither does Sophia...when she wants out in her kittywalk. Bella just says hmph when I look at her and Severino Chirps...some weird persian thing I guess!!!

Davidson is my little talker I just love hearing those little meow's!

Harley is a talker too, usually when I get home from work, other than that, he's pretty quiet, unless him and Davidson are running around together, sometimes it sounds like they are talking to eachother! Its adorable

Whitey definitely likes to talk...more so than the girls.

There are only boys at my house, but Forest is very, very chatty! He'll even have "conversations" with me. Tailer's pretty chatty, too, but he's getting a little quieter as he gets older. Harvey's the strong, silent type.
