If my cat meows, does that mean she wants attention or love?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:My cat would do that every once in awhile. I always though she was either talking to herself or lonely for her own kind. She never seemed in any distress. Cats are very intelligent animals. Intelligent animals often get easily bored. Maybe the domestic life in my house was too boring for her at times. I later had another who lived with me on my boat. He was never bored, always something to do and I don’t remember him ever meowing for no apparent reason.
