I like how in escalation of severity a cat meowing is above kids destroying the house.

You can stop a kind from destroying a house. Have you ever stopped a cat from meowing?

Our cat only has a temporary mute feature if we pick him up.

It can also depend on the meow.

I know the difference between chatty/playful meows and "I'm scared" meows for my lot. I'll sleep through the first, but the second rips me out of my sleep. I can't sleep for shit through thunderstorms anymore because one gets absolutely terrified and fearcries.

I swear that one of these days they'll manage to find a sound that'll give us a heart attack while we sleep.

If cats are ever attacked by a drone swarm armed with tasers, you'll hear it.

Even worse, a soft "bzzzt, click click click" from a hard drive (shudder)

I fucking hate the sounds these fancy dancy helium drives make, always triggering me, but I'm told it's perfectly normal sounds -_-

I'm playing with self-hosting OpenWebUI/Ollama, which cause my GPU fan to spin up whenever my wife/son/me make a chat interaction.

Now the fan spin serves as your notification alert.

cat pawing a glass with a bit of water in on my desk it that she suddenly prefers above all else making a tiny glass sound. She has ruined a mechanical keyboard with her antics and has made a damn good effort to ruin an amplifier also.

That's because you have it which means it's safe, your cat trusts you enough to share a water source
