Meow (disambiguation)
Meow, miaow, miau, mew, maow and others, are different spellings for one of the sounds made by cats. While cats occasionally vocalize to one another with purrs, growls, and screams, they generally communicate with one another through body language, and most communications we would recognize as "meow" are specifically for human interaction[citation needed]. Seriously the word meow is the fricken sickest thing ever. Meowing is a great American pastime for those who want to annoy poeople while also disguising their regular voice in the form of a cat. Cats generally like apples, especially my cat...named steve. There is a traditional poem about cats that has been passed down from families of Irish descent since the early 1930's, which goes: This is my cat...his name is steve...steve likes apples.
