What do you call your cat's purring. Me, I say "You're a helipopter".

1. When it's so loud that I can hear him six feet away,

I just call him a "purrball" :P

3. "Purrball" -- I like!!!

I can do what sounds to ME like a pretty good imitation of purring,
but I've NEVER had a cat look at me like, "How the hell are YOU
doing that?!?!?"
.
So, I guess I've never fooled one of them.

4. About 25 years ago, I worked with a really dumb guy

who told me that purring was how cats cooled themselves. My wife and I got the biggest kick out of that and still refer to it to this day. Cool mode.
