My cat never purrsThis is a discussion thread · 4 replies Anonymous: Why does my cat never purr when he is sitting on my lap? Does it mean he doesn't love me? Nor does he knead his paws into me like I've seen many other cats do. Is it something wrong with me or my cat? Can I train him how to purr? He's 3 years old and I treat him like my other male cat. The other one is very affectionate by the way. They are both neutered. My vet couldn't name me any reason of such behaviour... I look forward to your replies. I don't think there is something wrong with either your cat or you. If he didn't love you, he wouldn't sit on your lap at all. I think your cat simply has such a non-purring character. Are you sure he really doesn't purr though? I knew cats whose purring was sooo quiet that you would hardly distinguish it - it was possible only when silence regained around. I agree with Omnia - you don't really have to worry. Cats are different just like humans, with their own unique character.
