A loud motor sound from a kitten's body may mean that the kitten is happy. This usually occurs after the kitten has eaten enough, when playing, or when the owner is with it. Secondly, it may be that the kitten is afraid. In a state of alert, its ears will stretch back and make similar sounds. In addition, when a kitten has problems with its respiratory system, similar sounds will appear, usually accompanied by symptoms such as loss of appetite, runny nose, and sneezing. Therefore, the owner should analyze the kitten's specific situation. If it is caused by emotions, there is no need to worry too much, but if it is caused by disease, it is necessary to seek medical treatment in time.
1. Happy
Generally, kittens will make noises when they feel comfortable and happy, which sounds like the sound of a motor, such as after eating, playing, or when the owner comes home. Then this low-frequency motor sound will be emitted. At the same time, this purring motor sound also shows that the kitten likes to get along with its owner. At this time, the owner can stroke the cat's chin with his hand, which will make the cat feel happier and help deepen the relationship between the cat and the owner.
2. Fear
If it is a kitten that has just arrived in a new home, the cat may enter a state of alert due to the change in living environment and unfamiliarity with the owner. If there is any disturbance at this time, the kitten will make a sound similar to a motor and its hair will explode. The main purpose is to act as a deterrent. At this time, it is recommended that the owner stay away from the cat as much as possible to avoid harm, and wait until the cat is stable before comforting it.
3. Respiratory system problems
If the kitten not only makes a loud motor sound, but also has symptoms such as listlessness, loss of appetite, runny nose, sneezing and other symptoms, then It is very likely that there is a problem with the kitten's respiratory system, such as lung infection, poor breathing, etc., which will also make noises. It is recommended that the owner take the kitten to the pet hospital for examination as soon as possible to determine the specific cause and then carry out treatment.
