Please try to update your code like below

public class Cat {
  public string name{get;set;}
  public integer age{get;set;}
    
    public void meow(){
        system.debug('hello');
    }
}


Then try below code
Cat c = new Cat();
c.name = 'tiger';
c.age = 15;
c.meow();
system.debug('cat name is '+c.name);
system.debug('cat age is '+c.age);
