cerevor: "That woman" (at the piano) SHOULD be worried. She & her hubby have been musicians throughout their lives & it's her cat (Nora) who began playing the piano & gained worldwide recognition in 24 hours! Nora (the cat) has literally performed w/ the Philharmonic Orchestra - few beginner pianists have that privilege! But Nora's Mom isn't truly worried - she's very proud of her prodigy! LOL.....Note: Nora's 'CAT-Certo', performed w/ the Philharmonic Orchestra, is available for viewing on YTube. ;-)

My cat rarely snuggles, certainly never lays on top of me. I was in a nearly fatal head-on collision. When I got home from the hospital, I could only lay on my back due to extensive injuries. The minute I got into bed, my cat was on my chest/stomach, where he stayed, PURRING, for the entire day/night. He sensed how hurt I was & was healing me with the vibration of his purrs. He continued to do this for me (off & on, esp. when the pain was the worst) over the course of a very long & brutal recovery. I don't think I'd be alive now if it weren't for my cat! My best friend, truly.

I, too, have lost 2 cats to cancer...fibrosarcomas, and they were not in the tail or paws...they were near the spine. I also have a cat now...a stray that showed up when she was about 6 months old. She always sat on her flank more than on her bottom. Then, when she was about 9, she developed a wobble in her back legs. Took her right to the vet, and X-rays showed an old fracture in her spine where arthritis had set in. Her legs wobbled and she sat crooked because of the pain! 9 years of purring did not heal her, but the pain medication she's on now has worked wonders. She now sits normally, races around the house, and is clearly not experiencing the debilitating pain anymore. Purring releases endorphins, and that can help in the healing of of torn tendons. wounds, broken bones...but it does not cure cancer and does not mean an injured or sick cat can heal themselves. It can relieve stress, which we know can allow the body to heal better. Stress, even in humans, can make healing take longer. But this woman's claim about cancer is simply not fact. Ask any vet...the most common cancer in cats is lymphoma, a blood cancer. It's a shame this woman is spreading such nonsense. It could cause gullible people who don't bother to research the truth to allow their cat to suffer and even die, believing that their cat's purring is going to heal the poor thing.

2:18 She mentioned frequency analysis, but the signals she shows are still in the time domain. They are not in the frequency domain to show frequency analysis (FFT plot). When you extract the sounds from the video and do an FFT of both data sets, they are clearly different.This is why humans can pick up the difference.

She didn't suggest it prevents cancer. She simply made an observation. However, the great Nikola Tesla said, "if you would understand life, the universe, you must study frequency and vibration". So perhaps she has something. I have an old injury to my lower back discs. One day I lay in bed on my side in aching pain, my cat came and snuggled up to the very spot, and started to purr. Know what? In a few minutes the pain had gone. Explain it? No, I can't. It's an observation though.

Yep: I completed an online search on these "professionals" like I always do when we're highering specialists at my work and neither of these people are qualified in any way: "Doctor" Elizabeth von Muggenthaler? I didn't know you could call yourself a doctor with only a B.S. in Bio-Acoustics and a B.S. in Animal Behavior. Although surprisingly enough, her alma mater Old Dominion University doesn't seem to have or have ever had those undergraduate programs, so I'm guessing including that in her online CV is a scam too? The closest thing I could find in ODU's historical catalog was one undergraduate Biology course on Animal Behaviour. And then there's, "Feline Behaviourist" Beth Adelman. Beth at least has a graduate degree, in journalism of all things. I'm not seeing a certification on her online CV., but then that doesn't really matter. As far as I can tell, from a quick perusal online, these certifications seem to me to be a more expensive way of saying pet-trainer.

We’ve noticed a correlation between certain frequencies and healing BUT we have not been able to prove any causation. We can’t replicate it with any consistency. What we do know more certainly is that cats purr to self soothe and we also know that relaxation is good for healing. She’s also full of it when she says cats mostly get cancers in the extremities. She clearly has no veterinary training.

When a cat is purring, put your ear against its stomach and it will sound like the warp core of the Enterprise-D. I really wonder if the warp core sound is a slowed down cat purr from the stomach.

Muggenthaler's research is interesting "a cat’s purr is somewhere between 25 Hz and 140 Hz... [which] correspond(s) to vibrational/electrical frequencies used in treatment for bone growth/fractures, pain, edema, muscle growth/strain, joint flexibility, dyspnea, and wounds.” Apparently purr can help both people and cats.

Yep: I completed an online search on these "professionals" like I always do when we're highering specialists at my work and neither of these people are qualified in any way: "Doctor" Elizabeth von Muggenthaler? I didn't know you could call yourself a doctor with only a B.S. in Bio-Acoustics and a B.S. in Animal Behavior. Although surprisingly enough, her alma mater Old Dominion University doesn't seem to have or have ever had those undergraduate programs, so I'm guessing including that in her online CV is a scam too? The closest thing I could find in ODU's historical catalog was one undergraduate Biology course on Animal Behaviour. And then there's, "Feline Behaviourist" Beth Adelman. Beth at least has a graduate degree, in journalism of all things. I'm not seeing a certification on her online CV., but then that doesn't really matter. As far as I can tell, from a quick perusal online, these certifications seem to me to be a more expensive way of saying pet-trainer.

Wow. Leading the evidence much? A quick FFT showed that the audio samples are way different in the frequency spectrum. Different resonance, harmonics, etc. On top of that the house cat sample is played through line out while the cougar is played through crappy speakers with absolutely no low end. I doubt the filming of the cougar vs house cat segment were filmed in the sequence BBC shows us. Please release the actual sound clips from the good doctors research. And why was no FFT plot shown when talking about frequence? Cheers. Edit: Those Altec Lansing in the background come with a potent sub woofer. So much wrong with this interview.
