Why do cats purr

I. From a professional pet medical perspective, the skeleton of the cat's larynx consists of the nail and ring cartilage. The laryngeal cavity is divided into 3 parts, the upper part is the laryngeal vestibule and the trailing edge is the pseudovocal folds. The cavity between the pseudovocal cords and the true vocal cords is the second part of the laryngeal cavity. The third part is the cavity between the vocal cords and the cartilage ring, which is very narrow.
Second, the purring sound made by the cat is when the pseudovocal cords vibrate and resonate through the laryngeal cavity and make a sound. As long as the cat feels satisfied, excited, emotional and mental relaxation, it will make this light purring sound. In fact, when the cat purrs it is not asleep, because when the cat is usually playing, nervous or quietly sleeping, it will not make a purring sound.
Third, the cat purring sound may also help to stimulate the muscles and bones, and the vibration of a certain frequency produced when purring helps to keep the bones and muscles in good condition. Of course, some people believe that cats purr because they are releasing "painful stress", for example, when they have broken bones and are in pain, they will hear the cat purr.

Hearing is very important for cats to maintain the necessary alertness, and once they hear movement, they can immediately take the necessary action. In addition, the cat uses its body to rub against its owner and against the cat it is familiar with. This behavior of the cat is actually to leave its scent behind, so that it can be reassured when it smells it again in the future.
