Purrrfect

I acquired both Arwen and Smokey in 2004. Arwen in July and Smokey in September. They both are very sweet but have very different personalities and they get along very well they are not littermates but they are only a couple of months different in age so they don't know of any other life other than the one they are living. Arwen is very quiet and laid back while Smokey is more vocal and active.

I never hear Arwen's voice unless she is in the pet carrier which only happens if she is going to the vet. When she was younger she would purr quite often though it was very subtle as the months went by she would purr only occasionally. Smokey on the otherhand sound like a motorboat the second you pick her up.

For the past couple of weeks since the weather began to get colder Arwen has been spending a lot of time on top of me and she purrs a lot. It is very difficult for me to explain what it sounds like because it is not the usual purring sound. It is more like a gurgling sound that comes from deep down in her throat.
