cat partially opens mouth and chatters teeth

Yes, it's normal: all cats - my cats all have, at any rate - do this
(chatter) when watching birds.

my newly adopted cat was watching birds out the window this morning - his
tail
started swishing a bit - then it looked and sounded like he had his mouth
partially open (like when they do that smelling thing through their
mouths) and
it sounded like his teeth were chattering - does that happen?

its possible too that it was some sort of broken meow, it was just too
hard to
tell whether the sound was coming from his throat or his teeth

anyone know about this? thx!

I thought my cat was having a seizure the first time i saw him do this....lol

ok, i was able to catch a full sideways look at what he was doing - its
not his
teeth - he is "uttering" this sound

is it a common hunting noise? my other cats have never done this while
looking
out the windows


One of my cats does this; the other does not. I've never noticed a cat do
this until my present one....
