Although I probably give the impression that Louis Catorze only has two settings – Screaming and Asleep – in actual fact he has a number of different voices, as described in this post:

My favourite sound is now numéro 2 on the list and, although we only used to hear it when he was taken by surprise, it is becoming more and more frequent now. It is making an appearance in Boys’ Club rough play and even, from time to time, in normal conversation with the little sod. (Yes, he and I do chat. I don’t always know what he’s saying but I just try to keep him talking because, if he’s talking to me, it keeps him from annoying neighbours or bullying Oscar the dog.)
However, despite becoming more common, this sound remains as elusive as Bigfoot when it comes to capturing it on film. If you hear it once, then grab your phone to try to film a second squeak, it won’t come. And, should you discuss your intention to film it, you can guarantee that you will fail in your mission. But I was able to get lucky just one time, and the evidence is below.
This video is from some time ago, but it captures the squeak perfectly. Turn the volume up:
How adorable is that!

It’s quite astounding that I have captured it on video. Normally this sound is très elusive.

His screaming isn’t. You could strip paint with that scream.

Just played the sound recording and my cat Pixie was impressed, but I think she mistook it for her brother Winston who is also a real screamer!

I’d love to know what Pixie thinks of this!
