Abstract
Vocalization is a major expect of primary communication among vast group of mammals. The goal of present study was to analyze the vocal repertoire of domestic cats to decode their complex language through human perception. Interpretations through specialized software such as PRAAT or Audacity, investigation showed that ‘meows’ was the predominant form of feline communication which are scrutinized for pitch, duration, and intensity to reveal distinctive emotional patterns. ‘Purring’ was traditionally associated with contentment which was analysis for frequency and rhythmic nuances, exploring potential therapeutic implications. Defensive vocalizations include, ‘hisses’ which were examined for intensity, duration, and spectral features, offering insights into feline communication during confrontations. ‘Chirps’ and ‘trills’ were less common but unique vocal behaviors which were analyzed as short duration and rapid frequency modulations. The study intents to enhance understanding the acoustic behaviors by facilitating improved interpretations through characterized vocalizations of domestic cats to foster communication and deepen the relation between human and cats.
