But also, just as happens with the human smile, they do it when they feel fear, stress, anxiety, etc. Purring, in addition to expressing well-being and communicating, helps them relax and maintain control in certain situations. In fact, in adult cats, purring can be a sign of submission in a confrontation between two cats. From a biological point of view, purring causes them to release serotonin, commonly known as “the happiness hormone.” Another consequence of purring is vibration. When a cat purrs, its entire body vibrates, stimulating the growth of its bones and the health of its muscles. In fact, different studies carried out by the Public University of Berlin suggest that purring can be used by cats to heal themselves on certain occasions. It also helps make breathing easier and reduce pain and inflammation.
