Abstract
A new normal threshold of hearing of cat (monoaural) for free field listening was determined by behavioural audiometry and this was compared with cat's hearing thresholds obtained by other techniques of behavioural audiometry. The absolute hearing thresholds obtained in the present study are slightly lower than those of other authors at many test frequencies. This appears to be due to different conditioning techniques and testing methods which are used to determine hearing thresholds. Any large interindividual variability in absolute hearing threshold at any test frequency resulted from differences in the technique and method of obtaining the thresholds and not from differences in hearing ability of the animals.
