How do you respond when a cat meows?

Answer 1

Yes... sort of. Adult cats in the wild seldom meow to each other (they mainly communicate nonverbally, though they occasionally hiss, growl, or caterwaul).

Meowing seems to be a kitten behavior intended to attract the attention of the mother cat. Scientists think adult domestic cats meow to attract the attention of people, whom they seem to regard as a sort of substitute mother.

At least one of my cats seems to meow because she thinks it's expected. If I talk to her and then stop but keep looking at her, she often meows. As best I can tell it's because she apparently feels she has to keep up her end of the conversation. The fact that this behavior is cute enough to often earn her a treat or a petting serves to reinforce it

Cats meow when they are happy. However, scientific research shows that cats also meow when they are in pain or if they are dying.

Answer 2

Cats move their tails in different ways. They can't talk, but their tails can tell us how they feel. When a cat sticks its tail right up, they are saying a friendly "hello" (happy to see you). A relaxed cat curves his/her tail tail in a U-shape. A wagging tail tells you the cat is unhappy. A tail thumping to the ground tells you the kitten is going to attack. A twitchy tail means the cat is ready to pounce. Cats sweep their tails side to side if they are feeling excited or aggressive.

Answer 4

Pet it and then let it be. If it meows more than it wants to play. My cat does the same!

Probably, "Back off, or I will hurt you."
