Cats are a lovely pet creature. The main reason what makes them purr is, when cats purr they are actually trying to communicate. Cats also purr when especially people pet them. Cats also purr when eating. It is believed according to research that female cats purr when they give birth. Some nursing cats also purr as a means to communicate with their kittens. When cats try to communicate with people, they purr in order to show some affection and try to extend friendship.

Research also has proved that other than this, cats when they are in a bad condition such as when they are hurt or are about to die, they do this purring noise in order to signal us about their condition. It should be known that when cats purr, it is also a signal that they are telling us they aren't a threat.
