There's no better sound in the world than...

A purring cat 🐈 😺

What is it about a snuggly purry kitty that makes all your troubles go away? temporarily

Your baby giggling is better

For me it’s that they sooth all my senses. And knowing that they are happy makes me happy.

I love the sound of their little paws tip-tapping around too.

Yes, it's soothing and can go on for hours. Until the circulation in your lower body stops or you need a wee 😉

I mean, this is the litter tray topic, so no, it’s not 🙄

Is to me! And I have a cat

Mine don't tip-tap around, they crash around like a herd of elephants and ricochet off the furniture 🤨🤣

I love the sound of incoming cat through the cat flap. Even if he's only been gone five minutes, he always has news and I quite often get up from my desk and meet him in the kitchen to hear all about it.

'I'm back!' 😍

😂 Yes there is a wide spectrum from gentle tip-tapping to zoomie thunder and chaos. I love it all though - but not so much when I'm trying to sleep.

It's a fair comment. OP did say no better sound in the world!

Zoomie thunder and chaos is a perfect description 😅 Mine have so many toys but their favourite is a cheap tunnel with the ball attached - what a bloody racket it makes on a tiled floor! 🙀

Well bearing in mind that a cat's purr is supposedly at a good frequency to encourage healing in the human body...

Physical and mental balm, can't get much better than that 😻

Roll on when I move houses- i have my eyes on adopting two siblings! I miss all the noises from purring to knocking and crashing about. My old cat used to beg for bottle lids to play with... during the night she would proceed to drop them on the wooden flooring downstairs over and over to get me to play.

Good luck with your house move and potential new kitties - may your new home be filled with purrs and clattering throughout the night 😺

We have a vestibule between the front door and inside hall, with a really nice stained glass window in the door - I absolutely love when I unlock the front door, and then hear Louie thundering down the hall. I can see him jumping up at the middle door because he’s so happy I’m home. Like a dog that doesn’t need walked.

I also love cat snoring - so much nicer and more soothing than human snoring! - and waking up at night to hear the cat methodically washing herself at the end of the bed.

Louie's the dancing cat isn't he?

Purring, and happy gobbly noises when eating (which would be horrible from a human but are adorable from my cat), and a kind of happy chirpy trill that my cat does before she starts purring properly.

I'm team purr to be honest. 😻

Do your lot ever all purr at the same time, @Grumpyoldpersonwithcats?

It's not unusual to have three or four purring cats on the bed at night. noisy buggers

My son giggling and cooing - he’s 3

One and the same, the notorious Louie-Boo.

The trouble with this thread is that the title doesn’t make it sufficiently clear it’s about cats, @YelramBob . We’re going to have people citing their favourite songs next.
