Meowing is a way for cats to communicate. Cats may meow to show that they are hungry, craving attention, or want a walk outside.
Cats also say hi by meowing, announcing their presence. Cats also usually make sounds while walking around and whenever they feel lonely. Female felines will also make sounds to attract the attention of male cats.
Different cat breeds meow at different rates. Some kittens are known as "talkers", like the Abyssinians, Siamese, and Bengal cats. These felines make sounds more compared to other domestic cats.
The amount of meows is less significant than the behavioral changes the cat is experiencing. If the cat is a usual talker, its meows are probably insignificant and simply a part of its routine. However, if a cat's meowing has increased or changed significantly or suddenly became louder or quieter, this could be a sign that something is wrong.
