Thread: Does your Maine Coon talk like this?

Larry, our big loveable clown, is very vocal, and very loud. Sometimes to get our attention, and sometimes just because he's having a great time playing.
He has been known to shock visitors who think there's a small child hidden away somewhere howling for attention!

By contrast Monty has a very sweet, soft voice which you don't hear as often. Next to Larry, it sounds like he's whispering. But they both chirrup rather than meow.

Little Herbie our kitten is like his big brother Larry. Chirrups a lot in his little kitten voice, it's soooo cute!

Mufasa is a double chirrup cat! He's always 'talking' and almost sounds like he's moaning when you accidentally wake him up or when he jumps down from a high ledge (he probably is).

Spartacus is also a "double chirrup"....

My kitties' lexicon includes chirping and meowing with variations in length. In addition to that Ariella has her demanding
"MrrrAAAuhh" performed in a low tone whenever she wants to be brushed (which is anywhere from 12 to 20 times a day) My husband
often can not continue his work on the computer because she is in need to be brushed ASAP ("MrrrAAAuhh"x 3-10 times)
Another time she uses her demanding word is when it's 9 pm (expected time to play with fish rod and birdie)
