I adopted a couple poorly socialized gals a few months ago. One of them made noises while in heat before I spayed her, and sometimes she mrrrs at us or her sister. But the other one... we only ever heard her make a noise when she was in labor and in horrible pain, otherwise not a peep.
I've been making a lot of progress with them. They went from always hiding when we enter the room, to being willing to come greet me with their tails up when I call them for play/food, starting to not only put up with being petted, but actually enjoy it, and just being willing to relax out in the open around us. I don't know if they'll ever purr or meow at us.
But today, I called them to play, they came running as usual, stretching and yawning. And my dear emo cat actually squeed while yawning! They may yet become vocal kitties!
I had to share this with someone. Tell me about your kitties' meows and meyowns!
