Purring is a distinct sound that is almost always caused by some kind of pleasure in the cat.  It has been found that even unborn kittens make purring sounds, in the same way that newborn humans make cooing sounds.  Most common reasons for purring include relaxation and contentment, particularly around food, another kitten, or their owner.  Cats also purr when they’re in pain.  In general, if a cat purrs near you, it is likely just content.

Do cats purrs emit a frequency?

Most cats don’t have many parts of their bodies that can vibrate.  Instead, the entire body vibrates and oscillates, so that a large amount of air vibrates rapidly and the sound comes out from everywhere.  We can say that the cats purr sound is continuous without a frequency.
