I believed the tweet for a second, but then I remembered all the times I have woken in middle of the night with the gangs of cats outside my street just meowing to each other
Edit: I am wrong, I looked up Yowling and that’s definitely what I heard, not meowing.
Those cats on the street are not meowing, they are yowling. That's a holler to intimidate or to fight, over a territory or hot ladies. That's not a meow for a human to fill the food bowl or give scritches or something else tame and domestic.
it's honestly ever so slightly worrying that people would think yowling and meowing are the same thing, they can be sorta similar sure but yowls literally sound like a human voice and are slightly unnerving because of it.
It's like a parent thinking a baby's laughter and screaming are the same thing, that's.. not a good sign..
Maybe "meow" is cat language for "filthy peasant", so they're using it to insult each other and to address us.
This is the only explanation that makes sense.
