hmm, haven’t really ever considered this I must admit! Can cats make a wider variety of noises than dogs? I suppose cats can purr, meow, hiss, and make that awful crying baby noise when they’re fighting, so that’s quite a wide repertoire… But dogs can bark, growl, and howl. Hmm, yeah, I see your point!
I’m not sure why it would be. Maybe cats just have more high tech vocal chords? I know that cats are the only animals that can purr, but no-one really knows how they do it. One theory is that they use muscles in the larynx to move their vocal cords rapidly which causes air vibrations as they breathe.
