Not exactly like a cat, no. Cats purr by using muscles that vibrate their vocal cords, while elephant vocal cords are so large that they can make a similar noise without being specially vibrated. Elephants can, and do, make a noise similar to cats purring.
This sound is called 'tummy rumbling' because it sounds a bit like a tummy rumple.
Elephants make this sound to keep in contact and let the rest of the heard know that all is well.
The law of gravity says the force experienced is proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Effectively on earth the measurement of the force of gravity on a mass is the weight of the mass. As an Elephant has more mass than a Cat, it weighs more than the Cat (because the mass of the Earth is constant).
I would like to know if there any elephant ear plant thae does't spread?
Because it looks like an elephant head with a trunk. It's really cold too, so I dont think that any elephants really live there.
Elephant mourn their dead. If they find elephant bone, they gently examine them with what looks like sadness.

Yes, in the recent movie "Bangkok Dangerous" Nicholas Cage's character strokes an elephant on it's forehead and it can be heard to purr like a cat. If you activate the subtitles, they indicate "elephant purring" during the scene. Also see http://www.funshun.com/amazing-facts/elephant-animal-facts.html .

cats purr because they are happy and like their situation, and being comfortable is a happy situation, so the cat will purr.

There is no illness that causes a cat to purr. Cats purr when they are happy, content, and socialized. This includes non domesticated cats.
Cat purrs can be good for you. Just like when you smile, the sound of a cat purr can bring you joy. The sound of a cat purr also lowers your stress levels, therefore making cat purring a medical and mental benefit.
Cats purr alot when they are happy or when they sometimes want you to pat them. ~ Need more help on Howrse? PM me! I am Claire6318 ;D
No. a cat's purr is an involuntary action, their bodies natrually do it without any effort. its basically like breathing, we don't have to think about it to do it. often purr when they're being stroked or played with. Humans can make a purring sound with our tongues or some can breathe in and make a purring sound with our throats but it isn't the same as a cat's purr.
No, the word purr is a noun or verb, depending upon usage.An adjective is a word used to describe a noun.Examples:The cat made a soft purr as I stroked her.the noun purr is the direct object of the verb made;the adjective soft describes the noun purr.A contented cat will purr if you scratch its neck.will purr is the verb, what the cat does;the adjective contented describes the noun cat.
No. That is like saying can you de - purr a cat! Which you obviously can't!
Because that's their way of telling you that they are comfortable around you. For example, if you scratch them under the chin, they will like it and will start to purr.
