Tribble the cat's purr is only a few of those things, but it's 100 per cent adorable. The eight-year-old cat, who was adopted and returned twice, makes a sort of chirping sound as he purrs. It's a sound you'd expect to hear from a cricket or a dolphin rather than from a cat.

The purring sound that comes from cats is considered a sign of contentment from the animal and is believed to come from both the larynx and diaphragm, Wired reports.
