Purr Burger

by Andy on October 9, 2004

  • Purring usually is a sign of contentment
  • Most felid species produce a “purr-like” vocalization
  • Cats purr between 25 (diesel engine) and 150 Hz
  • This frequency range can stimulate bone growth and healing
  • Cats will purr under stress as a soothing mantra, pregnant cats will purr during delivery

And the purr of a kitty is easily the most comforting, soothing and wonderful sound ever made on earth. It’s so mysterious and beautiful.

In the cat or in the human in whose lap the kitty is purring?
