Preying for food: Cats may chatter before they pounce
February 23rd, 2009
by Tracie Hotchner, Author & Radio Show Host

   Cats who chatter are doing it because they see possible prey.

It’s probably because they have an abundance of adrenaline, a surplus of energy as they anticipate the hunt when they see that bird or mouse.
