A typical cat quirk is that they can purr. We don't pretend to know what kind of mechanism goes into making of a purr, or how to wind it up once it runs down. However, this much is known: There are a wide variety of purrs which range from the almost inaudible to the kind which can be felt through the floor. Loud purring might possibly set up sympathetic vibrations in a building and send it crashing to the ground. For these reasons, as well as others too numerous to mention, lions make very poor household pets.
