Me-usings and Me-emories
2 April 2021 - Although a purr is soothing to most ears, a cat's singing voice is an acquired taste. Sharp-edged and at times eardrum-piercing, the feline arpeggio, typically rendered from low to high, does get your attention... which probably was the intent, giving my ancestors with the most strident tone a slightly better survival edge. I haven't used my "outside" voice since coming inside our abode... there has been no need, and I am essentially a retiring individual. The shorter peep and I occasionally carry on a conversation, both of us meowing away. I'm sure she is clueless as to what she is saying, but her attempts to communicate are a sweet gesture.
Today's Catechism
(for the autodidcat)
It is fortunate that most
don't have to sing for their supper.
