The cat currently purring in my lap has evaluated the site and determined they are no competition. Also, she works for kibbles.

I keep hearing a cat but I don't see anything on my keyboard.

I think the generation algorithm is based on Purrlin noise.

Alright, let me fanboy a little bit about some more of Stephane's work (owner of that website)[1]. If you like Purrli, I'm sure that you will love his https://mynoise.net/ https://mynoise.net/ which is the ultimate noise generator out there. It allows you to choose from a huge repertoire of customizable soundscapes. There's a cat noise generator, but there's also rain, fire, plane noises, Japanese gardens, didgeridoo, sled dogs, spaceship engines, etc. There's even a subreddit where people mix up some of the soundscapes together to create amazing results: https://www.reddit.com/r/MyNoise/ https://www.reddit.com/r/MyNoise/ I use his websites daily, couldn't work without some quality background noise. You can set the soundscape to "animate" and your ears won't get tired of the sound. If the complexity of myNoise puts you off, try some of his other sites that are more similar to purrly: https://rain.today/ https://rain.today/ https://brainaural.com/ https://brainaural.com/ https://calmyleon.com/ https://calmyleon.com/ https://noises.online/ https://noises.online/ [1] https://stephanepigeon.com/ https://stephanepigeon.com/

    It is! Did you know that he actually travel the world to record those sounds? https://mynoise.net/SamplingSessions/index.php https://mynoise.net/SamplingSessions/index.php This website is truly a work of passion and I'm hooked on it.

In Chrome I get an exception >The AudioContext was not allowed to start. It must be resume (or created) after a user gesture on the page. https://goo.gl/7K7WLu https://goo.gl/7K7WLu thrown from the call to `new AudioContext()` and results in a page that makes no sound. Changing the sliders after this error has happened (in the hope that it would count as a user gesture) does not seem to do anything.

  On desktop? I've tried reproducing, even forcing chrome://flags/#autoplay-policy and can't seem to have the same issue.

Could be a friendlier meow. It sounds like someone stepped on a tail.

This is interesting. My 2 x 14 year old cats started getting very concerned, especially when the "meow" would happen.

In Firefox I only get purrs in the left channel. :(
