A meow is a cats auditory stimuli. They have a range of voices, and sometimes they speak, sigh, murmur or mutter. Adult cats seldom meow to one another, so the meowing of an adult cat to people is presumably a call for attention following domestication of meowing by kittens. The Meow can be assertive, plaintive, sweet, audacious, accommodating and attentive.
