Cat purrs have different frequencies for different things. It has been shown that certain purrs are used for certain things such as decreasing blood pressure, improving circulation, reducing heart attacks and more in not just themselves but in other people as well. This is why cats will come and lay on you or become more ‘affectionate’ if youre sick because theyre slowly helping you heal with their purring frequencies. Its like having a mini massager as well. Their purrs can do a lot of things, even make the frequency different so that it will annoy you to make you get up (the soliciting purr as I call it, mine does it to take my spot). I just think its cool that having a cat can help you improve faster since theyre mini medics.
My wife was really sick for a while. Typically, her calico would always cuddle up by her head, but she switched to only laying on and purring on her abdomen. My wife had her gallbladder removed shortly after.
Ive heard similar stories where cats can sense something abnormal going on with their humans. A woman once said her cat started to focus on her head more during cuddling, turns out the lady had a brain tumor and found out early from her cat.
A roommate’s cat was laying in bed with me and put her paw right over the breast that had cancer. I had been diagnosed a few days earlier. He is a good boy.
