minus-squareThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·5 months agoI keep seeing this “factoid” and I’m pretty sure it’s just bullshit. Cats meow to each other all the time. They can meow in frequencies humans can’t hear but they didn’t start meowing just to “manipulate” humans. Cats did however develop a specific type of meow that does in fact mimic the frequencies of a baby crying but it’s not the cats normal meow.
