Yelling into empty spaces isn't exclusive to old cats. I know of at least two who do it just to hear themselves yell.

I know a few politicians who do that too.

I don't know why mine used to, but then I separated and he yowls a lot less now. It's really kind of weird. I think it has to do with knowing where I am

My cat loves empty rooms for standing in and yowling. Good acoustics for singing I guess lol

It's not even exclusive to cats. Some days, you just gotta sound your barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world, y'know?
