What does it mean when a cat keeps meowing?
1. The cat is very happy.
When we're with a cat, it will lie on the floor or in its owner's lap. If we touch its sensitive spots, the cat will purr contentedly. This purring sounds pleasant and happy. In this situation, the cat's purring is actually expressing that it is very happy.
2. The cat is in heat.
Normally, cats don't make any noise, unless they are kittens seeking their mother or calling for their owner. If your cat is constantly meowing, especially in the spring, it's likely in heat. If you plan to breed your cat, you can find it a mate. If not, it's best to have it spayed/neutered before its first heat cycle. This is beneficial for both the owner and the cat. 
3. The cat is unwell
If your cat is constantly whimpering, has no appetite, and is lethargic, you should pay attention. Your cat may be sick or injured. It's best to carefully examine your cat and treat the symptoms promptly. If your cat continues to be in this state, you should take it to the vet to avoid delaying treatment.
4. The cat is hungry
Kittens usually start meowing a few days after birth so their mothers can find them more quickly and they can nurse faster. This is also why adult kittens meow when begging for food from humans. When feeding your kitten, it's best to do so regularly and in measured amounts; never let your kitten get so hungry that it has to beg for food. In addition, it's best to choose a nutritionally balanced cat food as its main diet.
5. The cat is very scared.
Cats are naturally timid, and even the slightest disturbance can terrify them. If your cat suddenly hides and meows, it means it's scared. The owner should check the surroundings for anything that might be frightening the cat, find the source as soon as possible, and comfort it.
6. Acting cute and affectionate towards you
If your cat keeps meowing around your legs, and you've ruled out illness, injury, heat, or begging for food, then your cat is probably just being affectionate. Even a usually aloof cat is being affectionate; in this case, pet it and play a game with it. This will make your cat more attached to you and like you even more.
7. Take the initiative to admit mistakes
When living with a cat, it's inevitable that the cat will misbehave at home and make mistakes that upset its owner. If the owner scolds the cat at this time, the cat will feel upset. At this point, it will take the initiative to apologize to its owner and make whimpering noises.
