Why Does My Cat Not Purr?
My cat was abandoned as a kitten and has never purred, We live in a lovely big house with a huge garden. He has everything a cat could possibly want but still does not purr. Is he unhappy or distressed?

Does she meow? If not, then get your cat checked by a vet - it's possible she has laryngitis, or had it, which has done damage to her anatomically.
If she still meows, then the lack of purring could simply be a behavioral problem, and all you can do is keep her happy, and maybe one day she will start purring (and keeping you awake at night). Otherwise, you'll know you still have a happy cat, purrs or not!

Maybe he is just one of the quiet purring cats. I have 4 of them, their "motors" as I like to call them, range from very quiet, barely audible, to very loud and can be heard across the room. It could also be the breed of the cat itself, some are louder than others, like the Maine coon for instance, rather loud motors.
Next time your cat is affectionate with you, turn down any appliances that might be making noise, and continue to keep the cat happy, and then listen very close to his head and neck area. I'm sure your kitty does purr, just happens to be one of the quieter breeds. Hope this helps.
