Just wondering. . .
So I was thinking earlier today [I've actually been wondering for a while, I just happened to think of it today.], what makes cats purr?? Like, not moods, I mean physiologically. So what did I do tonight?
That’s right! I found out. And according to some sort of cat web-site . . . . Here is why:
One study determined that purring involves activation of nerves within the voice box. These nerve signals cause vibration of the vocal cords while the diaphragm serves as a piston pump, pushing air in and out of the vibrating cords, thus creating a musical hum.
I bet you didn't know that . . . .
