I always assumed the lack of purring was due to childhood trauma and nervousness. The male cat is very needy and always needs to be sitting on me or another cat when in bed. He spent his first half year at home always sitting on top of his sister.

But I am surprised to hear there are cats out there that are not physically damaged from laryngitis or emotionally stressed. My cat is still not a very happy cat but he is getting better.

ok so this is random. I found this post from searching on google about my new kitten. anyway, i wanted to ask how your kitty was doing, is he better now? it's been a few years
