À propos de ce son

A short, cheerful default meow from the Scratch sound library. A classic cat sound effect used in games, animations and coding tutorials as a quick feline cue.

This is the tiny default meow bundled with Scratch, the visual coding platform, voiced by its orange cat mascot. It lasts barely a tenth of a second: a bright, cartoonish mew with a quick upward pitch and no reverb or background noise. Because the clip is so short, it lands as a cute pop of personality rather than a realistic animal call. In videos and student projects it signals playfulness, draws attention to the Scratch cat sprite, or rewards a click or collision. Listeners instantly recognise the chirpy tone, which makes even a simple animation feel friendly and responsive.

Conseil pro

Drop the meow on the exact frame the Scratch cat appears or gets clicked, layering it with a soft pop to sell the interaction. Keep it quiet in the mix and avoid looping it back to back, since the chirpy pitch grates fast.

Comment les gens l'utilisent

Kids add it when the Scratch cat sprite appears on screen.
Teachers use it to reward correct answers in coding lessons.
Animators trigger it when a cartoon cat jumps or waves.
Streamers play it as a cute alert for new followers.

Plus d'informations

Scratch is a free block-based coding platform created by the MIT Media Lab and released in 2007, built around its orange cat mascot. The meow is one of the default sounds shipped in its built-in sound library, so it appears automatically in countless beginner projects. As students shared their games and animations on the Scratch website and later on YouTube and TikTok, the chirpy clip travelled beyond the classroom. Creators still grab it today because it is instantly recognisable, easy to reuse, and only a fraction of a second long.

FAQ

What is the Scratch default meow sound?

It is the short built-in meow that ships with Scratch, the MIT Media Lab coding platform. The chirpy clip is tied to the Scratch cat mascot and plays when the sprite meows in beginner projects, games and animations.

Where does the Scratch meow come from?

It comes from the official Scratch sound library, which bundles a small set of default effects with the editor. The meow belongs to the Scratch cat, the platform's orange mascot, and has been part of the library for years.

How do creators use the Scratch meow sound?

Creators drop it when a cat sprite appears, jumps or gets clicked, and as a cute notification or reward cue in games. Because it is only about a tenth of a second long, it works best as a quick accent rather than a repeated loop.
