Answer by  janeplowmanwindstreamnet (292)

Different breeds of cats have different sounds. Siamese are one of the most vocal breeds. Most cats make the meow sound just to get your attention. If he sits by the door he wants out. If he wants you to follow him, he is trying to show you what he wants. A clicking sound usually means he is excited.

The meaning of different meows depends on your individual cat. Each cat makes its own sounds and they mean different things. There are some general rules, such as hissing usually means a cat is mad, but different sounding meows depends on the individual cat and how it is feeling at the time.
