All cats can have different sounds when they purr from loud purring that sounds like a locomotive to sounding like a pigeon. Cats have muscles in their voice box that vibrate to cause the purring sounds and most cats purr when happy.

Yes, they can. It is now thought that all cats, even "big" cats that can roar, can purr. Big cats, with their specially-designed throats, can only make a purring sound when exhaling which is called "chuffing", and not in a constant stream like other cats.they cannot but they can chuff they can purr,but only on the ex hale. I don't think wild cats can purr; but I did hear that one can, the cheetah.
