do cats meow to each other

Cats primarily use meowing as a form of communication directed at humans rather than at each other. Adult cats rarely meow to other cats; instead, they communicate with other cats through body language, scent marking, and other vocalizations such as hissing, growling, trilling, or yowling. Kittens meow to their mothers, but as cats mature, meowing is mostly reserved for interactions with humans to express needs or get attention. In some rare cases, cats may meow at each other, for example during mating season or brief cautious greetings, but this is not common or their primary form of communication between themselves.
