They mimic human babies. In an effort to solicit responses...
Researchers at the University of Sussex have discovered that cats use a "soliciting purr" to overpower their owners and garner attention and food.
Unlike regular purring, this sound incorporates a "cry", with a similar frequency to a human baby's.

+1 How else are they supposed to tell you they are hungry. I rather wake up to that then barking or being licked in the face by someone who just ate their poo! All my cats have access to food 24/7, never a problem for me.

We could rename this thread to: This PROVES men are EVIL DIABOLICAL DEVIL CREATURES for hating cats.

Thats just nasty . Cats paw around in their own urine and feces than you let it climb in your fridge .
Actually, I don't let her in there, but she will jump in there when I am not looking. Causing me to clean up with clorox wipes.

OK..boring vet stuff: One reason there is an increase in diabetes in cats over the last 10+ years is the way we feed them. Domestic cats, like their wild cousins, are set up to eat one large meal every 1-2 days, release insulin after the big meal, then be done. Our domestic cats now 'graze' all day long and have bursts of insulin many times in a day. This type of insulin release and feeding behavior sets them up for an increase risk of diabetes.

Really.....I never knew that.....I have always fed my cats this way....I guess I've been lucky since I have never had a sick cat....
Does it matter if they are indoor....or outdoor cats???

Mine is an indoor cat w/ 24/7 access to food. Perfectly healthy and not fat. All my cats have been and I've never had a single one diagnosed w/ diabetes.
Just like w/ humans, I find it far more likely that what they're being fed is crap than that their access to food is unnatural.
Re: the OP - I'm told my parent's cat did that when I was born.

Things that increase risk of diabetes:
1. old >8
2. female versus male
3. feeding all dry food vesus some canned/some dry
4. obeisity
5. free choice feeding versus feeding 1-2 meals per day
Realize this is statistical. Not every older fat female cat that grazes on dry food all day will get diabetes
