Mowling

The sound a cat makes when it's on the defensive, paw up, fighting with another cat.

Also the name of the sound soon-to-be-ex-girflriends make when they find your phone lying about one day.

"Why's Ginger mowling like that? Next door's cat must have got through the catflap again!"

Also the sound a soon-to-be-ex-girlfriend makes when she finally loses her self control and goes through your iPhone photo and message history, and freaks out because you told someone you loved them FOUR YEARS AGO.

*Setting: Traditional English Pub with a cheap, cosy Bed & Breakfast upstairs. A man is talking to the bartender.*

"Yeah, she looked like Gollum, holding my phone... crying... and then she started mowling like a wounded tiger... and to be honest, I just thought 'Fuck this!', so I snatched my phone back and came here. Another pint of Stella and a double Jack Daniels, please! I may need a room for a few nights. It said you had vacancies?"
