Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / August 2006She yodels!
Miranda just yodelled! She has been very talkative the last few days. Usually she has a very varied repertoire of meaows, mrows, mrooos, mah-mah-mahs etc. But this was the first time she went into a falsetto yodel. It was like Meow-meow-meow-YODEL-meow-meow-meow-YODEL! I wish I could figure out what she is saying or what she wants.  SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki.

WAV file! :) I wish I could stick a microphone in her face and say, 'yodel into this.' I can do it, of course, but she wouldn't. SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban.

SignatureCheryl /giggling at the thought of a yodeling little gray girly cat >Miranda just yodelled!

I've heard it said that yodeling involves switching smoothly between your "chest voice" and your "head voice". Can cats do that? I wish I could listen to Miranda yodeling! > I've heard it said that yodeling involves switching smoothly between > your "chest voice" and your "head voice". That's right, although I would say it's more like a *rough* transition. A smooth one would not have that sudden "flip" sound, and you wouldn't know exactly when the switch had happened. A good singer knows how to go from chest to head without any glitches (ie, yodeling) in the voice. I haven't learned how to iron out the yodels from my voice when singing a song with a wide range - in fact, it's rather pronounced. But my choral group is doing a African pygmy song that's supposed to have a yodel-y sound, and I'm leading the call-and-response because my yodel is better than anyone else's. Hey, it's not a bug, it's a feature! Joyce PS - I've never heard a cat yodel in my life. Mir-mir must be particularly gifted. >Miranda just yodelled!

Dante is a chirper, and Stinky, of course, loves to concertize on summer evenings, especially while he walks up and down the piano keyboard. ;) Theresa Stinky Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/125591586JWEFwh Make Levees, Not War > They make some amazing noises, don't they?

Just what I would expect of Stinky; he sings to his own accompaniment. SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki.
