This Oreade Music release tracks the lives of cats and kittens through the adorable sounds they make. Like that soft-focus poster hovering over your eyes at the dentist — “Hang in there!”; “Purrrly whites!” — Our World’s Sounds: Cats & Kittens mikes up 18 of our furry friends’ adventures. And those song titles! We hear all the chewing of “The Discovery of a Full Cat-Dish,” all the scampering and mewing of “The Wind Rustles Through the Trees, Time for a Romp Through the Autumn Leaves,” and the contented purrs of “Bliss Is a Warm Fire to Curl Up in Front Of.” Thankfully free of backing music and voice-over, Cats & Kittens brings us just the animals, accompanied by some wind and the occasional bird. It’s over a half-hour of feline fun. – Johnny Loftus
