Hey all,
so we have 2 beautiful british shorthairs from the shelter. They love each other and get along really well.
One is extremely vocal. It took us a while and some vet visits to make sure he isn't in pain. He isn't - he's just a screamer.
Now, his meows are cute most of the time, but he has now started meowing around 6am, both loudly and constantly, when we'd still like to sleep. He is very much into food, so he probably starts yelling the moment he gets a little hungry.
Have you had similar experiences and any advice?
Get an automatic feeder! Our cat is the exact same way, she quit bothering us about food when she knew it wasn't coming from us.
I know bcz we still give them wet food in the evening, and she's an absolute asshole about it and will meow incessantly for 40 minutes before we give her food.
Thank you. And I sympathize, 40min is rough.
We've been using a catmate feeder for the last 2 nights and it seems to have helped a little.
But some of the morning ruccus may just be literal screams for attention ๐
It will hopefully get better as they realize the food is coming from the feeder. Good luck!
