meow

Oh, sweet teeny-tiny kittens! Our hearts will never get enough of tiny kittens, because, how can they? Seriously, how can anyone look at this little face and not feel an overwhelming squeal about to take over? 

This adorable little rescue kitten makes the cutest little sounds and our hearts were stolen immediately. Stolen with no chance of ever being returned. And would you please just look at those big eyes? Or don't, you can probably make it out this without your heart stolen if you don't look into those big adorable eyes. It's too late for us. 

This tiny but very angry kitten is going viral. All it's doing is very cutely accidentally dipping its paw in some water, but then... after a curious glance into the wet abyss of the bowl, the fiercest but smallest screams occur.

There is such sincerity in this kitten's frustration with the water, it's somehow both funny and strangely heartwarming. It's as if the kitten is a mother scolding its child for doing something bad. "EXPLAIN YOUR WETNESS," the kitten is yelling, we are sure. If we had the answers, kitten, we would definitely help. 

And the adorable video plays on and on, we loop it over and over, and it is just as cute every single time. 

This is new and fun! Former Amazon engineer, Javier Sanchez, who previously worked on Amazon's Alexa has now unveiled his latest project and it's all about cats! An app that translates your cat's meows -- MeowTalk. 

You'll be able to decipher your cat's meow based on tone, everything from "I'm hungry" to even "I'm in pain." 

Javier Sanchez who was working with Bellevue-based tech company Akvelon developed this app named MeowTalk. Sanchez tells King 5, "It's not a language. They don't share words or communicate with each other. Cats never meow at each other out in nature."

So, what was the inspiration being this app? Sanchez reveals he was initially intrigued by the NPR series, "The Secret Language of Cats," and thanks to previously working on Alexa, he was motivated to develop this new tool for cats. According to Sanchez and his team, there are about "nine intents that all cats have." 

The ultimate goal for this app is to someday become a collar with a voice response. While testing a prototype of this collar, Sanchez holds his own kitten and when the cat let out a meow, it translated to "I'm angry, leave me alone!"

Sounds pretty accurate to us! While the development of this app is still underway we definitely look forward to this fun, and perhaps knowledgeable, app!

There's a reason we all look at the cubs of big cats and want to pet them as if they're kittens, and this video showcases exactly why that is. Giving us its very best effort to roar like the king of the jungle, this tiny fluffy lion ends up squeaking instead, just like a kitten. 

The cub probably doesn't understand why everyone around it is awwing instead of bowing, but we do, and so do the people filming it. "They all make that sound?" one of the people asks, and another clarifies that "it'll turn into a growl later," but it's almost hard to believe that with how adorable the roar is. No wonder we all kiiinda want to have a pet lion. Like, be honest about it, it would be incredible to cuddle with one. It's almost shocking, honestly, that our cute house cats are relatives of cubs like this, but then we remember how ferociously our cat attacks whenever there's a hairband on the floor, and things make a bit more sense in the world. 

Do you know what's cuter than one kitten? Seven kittens. 

Seven kittens, aged between 3-4 weeks, all meowing at once! Be still our beating hearts -- there's only so much cuteness we can handle! 

And yes, this video is a bit old but who can blame us for wanting to reminiscence and watch a video that brings the smiles?

Meet Armani! This lovely lady is twenty-two years old leopard who is undeniably silly, playful, and very vocal. 

She is in the lovely hands of Big Cat Rescue, an educational non-breeding, accredited, sanctuary and a registered non-profit organization. 

If you ever wondered what a chatty leopard sounds like -- turn up the volume! 

We can't help but hear a heavy chain smoker but we still love Armani regardless of what she sounds like! 

Is there anything more beautiful than a mother's love? Probably not. 

Even though these kittens are no longer kittens now, this video is just too heartwarming not to be resurfaced once more! 

Moments of bliss for this loving mother who softly meows at her kittens, as a form of communication. Add that sound to the purring and you've got nothing but happiness! 

Half-Asleep Chris makes a 'Keyboard of Meows,' filled with sounds from his beloved cat Ralph, who meows all... the... time. 

With the heartbreaking loss of Half-Asleep Chris's other black cat, Tom, this beautiful video plays as a reminder to appreciate our cats while they're still with us. 

So with that in mind, Half-Asleep Chris has created this keyboard and it will always serve as a beautiful memory of Ralphs' meows, yawns and purrs... even if it sounds like the stuff from nightmares.
