Why Do Cats Purr?

Every year in the United States, over 1.2 million people are mauled by cats.  Cat bites are dangerous and can are very deadly.   If you or a loved one live near a cat, it is of paramount importance to always be alert and prepared for conflict.

Cat bites are associated with higher risk of infection.  Unlike dogs, cats possess a snakelike array of teeth that are sharp, needlike daggers of death.  The teeth penetrate deep muscle of victims, directly injecting lethal doses of toxic bacteria into the body and bloodstream of innocent victims.  Human babies are at highest risk of cat bite death (CBD) due to their soft, veal-like muscle and scent of milk.

Cats will secretly bite a human baby to get a taste of blood, then smother the child over the mouth to get a taste of milk and also silence the victim until oxygen deprivation causes a near sleep state.  The cats with then go back to the puncture wound and lick clean the remaining blood to get one more taste and cause the skin to close up around the wound, hiding the truth from the adults in the house.

This leads to many bacterial infections and cases of sepsis seen in infants and toddlers.  They cannot communicate the horrors cats do to them behind closed doors, when everyone has stepped away for but a few moments.

Cats are also very seductive, using their purr to cause a sense of trust to be aroused.  But the only thing that should be aroused by a cat’s purr is panic and fear.  Cats are incapable of feeling love.  They are incapable of feeling complete gratitude.

If you think otherwise, try a simple experiment.  Give your cat a belly rub and a rub on its flank and hind quarters.  At some point, no matter how long you’ve owned it, it was purr and then bite you.  It will never fail.

Purrs are actually the sound a cat’s heart makes when it speeds up.  There is a saying in the old mechanic’s world, “The engine is purring like a kitten.”  This saying comes from old knowledge that a cat’s heart operates much like a rugged v8 engine:  hot, mean and vocal.  It always burns so hot with rage and primal instinct that it creates a purring noise, just like a throttling engine.  It is just waiting to rev up and send the cat hurtling at one of your exposed veins or flesh.

If you find yourself victimized by a cat bite, please think clearly and remember the following:

  • Time and location of bite
  • Health status of cat, rabies vaccination history, behavior, whereabouts, etc.
  • Circumstances surrounding the bite (ie, provoked or defensive bite versus unprovoked bite)
  • Location of all bites
  • Patient’s medical history

Untreated, a cat bite can kill within 24 hours.  A man recently failed to get his family’s cat bite checked out and nearly died from Bubonic plague, both his hands falling into a state of irreversible gangrene.

  • Did you really rewrite your article? Because as far i remember you did already made such article before.

    “Every year in the United States, over 1.2 million people are mauled by cats. Cat bites are dangerous and can are very deadly. If you or a loved one live near a cat, it is of paramount importance to always be alert and prepared for conflict.”

    Cats don’t bite people. Dogs do.

    “If you think otherwise, try a simple experiment. Give your cat a belly rub and a rub on its flank and hind quarters. At some point, no matter how long you’ve owned it, it was purr and then bite you. It will never fail.”

    Most of cats don’t like to be rubed on their belly.

    And cats do purr when they are happy, but also if they have pain. You can read more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purr

      • Normal house cats don’t bite people, unless you annoy them too much.

    • The cat biting his owner to death with Bubonic plague let me know, in my spirit, that I had to rewrite this one with far more passion.

      The cat tricked his owner with gentle purrs, then unleashed a death sentence upon him. Maybe if I had prayed harder before I wrote my last article, my wisdom would have reached that poor man and he would have known to take his cat to the local animal shelter. Or heck, he could have sent it here to me and I could have made sure everything was solved in 7 days.

          • You don’t need to repeat yourself. You’re just making your comments TL;DR.

            Please don’t attack me for an inaction burger flipper. There’s good reasons why the majority of your criticisms are unfounded.

          • “Please don’t attack me for an inaction…”

            Excuse me?!? You jump all over anyone who doesn’t punctuate properly, spell “to the letter” or put everything in YOUR idea of perfect order and you have the unmitigated gall to accuse me of attacking you? (I suppose I should have specified that “anyone” apparently doesn’t include your lot.) I guess I can use your own words one more time:

            “Take responsibility for your actions instead of shifting the blame…”

            “There’s good reasons why the majority of your criticisms are unfounded.”

            Really? Care to list a few, Cartoon? You need to wake up and realize that you’re on a BLOG site. People learn to overlook imperfections in posts for the sake of continuing the discussion. YOU, on the other hand, use it to “redirect” the discussion when it starts to turn against you. Grow up and stop acting like an over-worked, under-paid college English professor.

    I can’t stand cats. I have been attacked by several, some through jealousy of me getting more attention when I was a child, some for reasons unknown to me. But as much as I love dogs, you can’t deny they pose the bigger threat.
    Both cats and dogs have the potential to pass on zoonotic diseases to humans, not just one species.
    Dogs definitely have the more powerful bite, and the teeth are designed to crush and sink into flesh whereas a cat’s is for smaller prey such as mice and birds, which is why it’s so agile and quick.
    I definatley argue that dogs are for uperior and intelligent to cats, but you can’t just attack a species for no fucking reason.
    Haven’t you heard about all the dog attacks recently? Especially over here, the most common attacks occur with Staffordshire Bull Terriors, that are very powerful dogs.
    Anyway, I though dogs were supposed to be creatures of the ‘devil’ – the Hounds of Hell?

    Scientists have demonstrated that cats produce the purr through intermittent signaling of the laryngeal and diaphragmatic muscles. Cats purr during both inhalation and exhalation with a consistent pattern and frequency between 25 and 150 Hertz. Various investigators have shown that sound frequencies in this range can improve bone density and promote healing. ~ http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=why-do-cats-purr THANK YOU SCIENCE.
