Growling, hissing or spitting indicate a cat who is annoyed, frightened, angry or aggressive. Leave this cat alone. A yowl or howl (they sound like loud, drawn-out meows) tells you your cat is in some kind of distressâstuck in a closet, looking for you or in pain. Find your cat if they're making this noise. However, in unneutered and unspayed cats, these sounds are part of mating behavior (and very annoying).
Kittens are able to make a hissing sound even before they open their eyes. They can recognize their mother and humans by the smell, so if they don't recognize the smell of who is near they will sometimes hiss with their mouth opened and even spitâeven at one week old.
