Why do humans enjoy it when cats purr? I love the responses. Both of our cats will purr when they’re feeling contented and cozy. I often think about the purported healing effect, especially when I’m feeling sick or lousy. (I think I first learned about it Oryx and Crake, but I didn’t realize at the time there was some scientific basis for the idea.)

Ha–Reading Oryx and Crake was the thing that helped me get over feeling weird during the chanting portion of yoga class (“Ommmmmmmm”).
