She is 7 months old and just learned to meow - although it still does not come natural to her. My vet told me this is because she was taken from her mother too young. Meowing is a learned behavior. As kittens, the mother cat chirps to call her litter, to feed or use the litter box. My kitten Bianca did learn to meow when she was at the kennel while we were away. BUT - She will only do so when she is very excited, focused or distressed. We are very proud of her when she "makes a meow" Hope this helps. )O( My kitten also chirps.

Just before I was born, the gorgeous black female cat we had (Annabelle) gave birth to two kittens that my sister named Licorice and Midnight (originally). Not long after she was born my mom figured out that she couldn't meow correctly, she just squeeked and was known from there on out as Squeeker. I miss her so much... She was completely solid black, even the pads on her feet, with the most beautiful copper eyes. Her sister was her twin except that she was yellow-eyed. Squeeker used to follow my and our old tom cat Charlie around all over creation when I was little... We had some wonderful adventures together. :) Thanks for bringing back the memories with *your* little Squeeker.
