Those of us who have hearing impairment may not find that quite so funny.

Yeah....but don't you think they pet their cat?

The flippant/playful remark certainly would not apply to hearing-impaired people, of course. >> Yeah....but don't you think they pet their cat?

Kiki is lying between my chest and left arm (at the moment with her paw stretched out onto my ear). I probably could feel her purring before I could hear it. I can also tell when she's dreaming. > > It's not always that palpable. Hodge purrs, but you can't really > > tell by feel... > > And maybe a feeling impairment. No, it's just not that much of a purr. Yeesh.

My other cat has more of a rumbling breathing sound as his purring but it's not very loud. Actually, this would be a great product for deaf cat owners... >http://engadget.com/entry/1234000603054198/ > >BLink |
