I never had a cat who did a traditional "meow".

And our new cat cries like Kitty's for me too. But then Weez has always been such a baby from the beginning. After her first vet visit she cried for an HOUR (with me holding her) just like a human baby would. Weez's vocalizations are quite high pitched, and get very high when hungry or hurt or frightened.

My impression of cats is that they remain at the equivalent level of a human toddler, for life. This means they play, demand, sulk, pout, cling, etc.
When encouraged, they can remain very playful. When thwarted, they can hold grudges. When afraid, they require alot of support to end the fear.
