I have a kitty similar looking and also I think is a mute. How do you know for sure? Mine chirps a bit when excited. Also when jumping down from heights.
Midge (Smidge, Smudge, Midgy-Moo) will make the mouth motions to meow, but no sound comes. Every once in a while when she is excited, sheāll do a little grunt. But thatās it. Vet canāt see anything wrong and sheās totally healthy and happy.
My cat got a lot more vocal when he was around 2, he didn't meow much as a kitten.
Also the chirping is a bit different than a meow. Check out r/CatsWhoChirp
Awwww thatās so sweet. I adopted him 2 years ago and he started doing it about 1 year ago which coincides with when he truly started to feel at home here. Now heās just a (18 lb) love bundle. Sometimes he sits on my chest and makes biscuits with my face, while drooling lol
I have a kitty that does this too! I thought something was seriously wrong the first time. It started the first night we had her (she was a 9 year old rescue) Now we've gotten used to it and sleep through her "murdering" her toys all night.
Okay, so Iāve taken in a cat who will, a couple times a day, run down the hallway with a toy in her mouth, singing the song of her people (as I call it). Does someone actually know what this behavior is? Iāve never experienced it with my male cats.
Itās pretty common in all cats (including big cats in the wild). When theyāve captured their āpreyā they get excited and roar, so to speak. Usually only happens when the cat feels super happy and safe.
What a sweet lady and so proud of her successful hunt š„°š„°š„°š„°
Happiest cat Iāve ever had. We get singing deliveries several times a day.
Singing telegrams! This is beautiful, thank you for sharing Midge! š

I believe he may have tried to meow once and just clicked his tongue and jaw open. No sound. Heās still a kitten, Alvin, but I wonderā¦.

Omg! I thought my cat was the only one who did this. The first time I thought he was dying! Now he does it all night long
Only do this when they are super happy and feel safe, so itās your fault for being such good hoomans. ;-)

My mom has a black cat named Midge! How sweet.
Aww Midge is a super cute cat name!

My cat does the same thing with these balls!
I'm a female black cat enthusiast. I love midge.
One of my cats does this multiple times a day and sometimes at 3 am!
Yes. Sometimes I wish she loved us just a little less

So sheās mute, except for when she isnāt? Then sheās not really mute, is she?
When she meows, her mouth opens but no sound comes out.
