And is there anything better than kitty trills? Not all cats do it, and I have such a soft spot for kitties that do. I once took in a pregnant feral cat (she ran into my garage during a storm), and when she had her kittens, I was just blown away by the way she sang to them -- long, lovely trills that were full of emotion!

My theory is that some mother cats do this, and their kittens grow up to be trillers. Whenever I greet a cat in my neighborhood, I trill at them like my wild baby taught me to. Some cats are very responsive to this kind of approach -- I think they are the ones who were trilled to by their mothers.

Anyway, my theory. Emma is a doll!
