About the name
"Silent Meow" is just a phrase I greatly enjoyed saying in response to my cat Holden and his trademark silent meows. Holden had a big personality, and he really put some emotion behind his silent meows (or loud meows, or dramatic flops, or passionate head bumps etc). What does it mean when cats meow silently? For the most part, it is just another way they express affection.
On August 12, 2025 my sweet Holden suddenly passed away. Now the phrase silent meow has taken on another much sadder meaning. It was tough to come here and change my about section into past tense. I miss him so much, I wish he was still here. In remembrance of him, I added a new page to this website: https://www.silent-meow.eu/remembrance
