Do you know the difference between a baby and a cat? A baby squeals when they are happy, sad, or surprised. A cat usually hisses or growls when it is feeling angry or threatened. While there are certainly similarities between babies and cats, there are also huge differences. One of the biggest of which is that babies squeal quite a bit, whereas cats usually only hiss or growl in response to being threatened or angry.
