RE: Hilo, our mischievous and adorable kitten
Purring does not always indicate that a cat is happy. Cats will also purr loudly when they are distressed or in pain.

This is true! We once took little Hilo to visit our neighbour in the apartment across the hall. She also had a cat. We thought he was happy-purring but then quickly realised it was "nervous" purring, so we took him straight back home!
The cat appears to be the only domestic companion animal not mentioned in the Bible.
