  • @lu_re7198
    @lu_re7198 2 роки тому +18

    Thanks for the insight Doc.😃 Other things that may keep a highly active/chatty cat busy:
    * dog treat dispensing ball (add cat kibble & easy setting)
    * interactive dog puzzles
    * hiding a small portion of its meals (kibble) around the house so cat must use it’s nose to hunt.
    * regularly scheduled play time.
    * have chatty cat wait in separate room while prepping meals.
    * set up a guest bathroom or catio w/ cat bed, water bowl, toys, soft music..., so your cat will have a safe space to meditate and reflect. 😄
    * wear noise canceling headphones while napping/meditating...and remember that your cat is very attached and dependent on your loving kindness, care and affection.
    Note: to prevent weight gain, deduct the kibble from the cats regular meals.
    Also, I’m not a professional...So please also share your tips!

      My mom died and I trying to rehome her 7 year old cat with me. I have it all planed, leave her in bath room tell she gets somewhat used too us. 2nd night she insist on coming out.
      I cave. She found a register for the old heat pump, not part of the new unit that had come uncovered my son had stuck a pillow in it for ferrites 10 years ago. Cat thinks she'll squize her big ole self in there I can just see her shock when out she dropped. I can laugh now for we have her back safe in the house. But she said not one loud peep the 2 days and 1 night before she fell through the rabbit hole. AND not one peep PERIOD the 6 DAYS she was under the house. AND THEN the 2nd night back the 2nd time she let her YEWOLLE come out too play! holy Toledo ! Man banging on the wall so ok I cave everything is secure, I let her out and she doesn't shut up to take a breath. I think she is wayling cus she misses mom but no she goes down to daughters room and bangs on door like she going to breake it down all the while YEWOLLEING! She wanted to go deep in her closet.That wasn't going too happen. So I got her back on other side of house and my poor granddaughters are like BE QUIT. I'm like saying ignore her just listion and be greatfull ,we thought we'd never see her again. I'm like laughing so hard I'm going to pee my pants everybody's and the poor cat is YEWOLLEING and grandmas trying to get to the potty. LOL HAHAHA 🤣😂 She is one spoiled putty tat. I had to put her in her animal carrier and cover the whole thing up like a noisy ole parriet. We slept and had school on line 3rd grade, 1st grade and kindegarten. Desperate measures. I think the bathroom wasn't small enough. She needed to be contained and she calmed down and she wasn't mad at me I the moring tonight she is snuggling with me. All is well faster than i thought. Sometimes you have to be the alpha cat😉😼😸

I pulled up a picture of him on my tablet, and she couldn't stop staring at it. She sometimes sniffs his toys. His bed is still sitting there with his blanket. I never washed it because I thought that his scent might comfort her. I feel so bad for her.

    What the cat behaviorist at Humane Society recommended was playing with my cat every morning for 30 minutes and putting het food in a food puzzle. We thought it was anxiety but the behaviorist said she just has too much energy. It has stopped her from meowing in middle of night but she still does it sometimes when she thinks I “should” be awake. Also sometimes she stops for weeks on end but then something happens-a winf storm, for example, and she does it again. For weeks. I try not reinforce and just ignore but it seems so random. It’s nerve wracking and it really irritates me.

      My boy is missing his brother. His brother, Grim, passed away last Monday from complication from FIP. I feel so sorry for him. He did everything with his brother. I found them on the street at 5 day old and raised them together like my own children. I feel like falling apart but I can't. My husband said to ignore him but I my instinct is to run to him whenever he cries. 😢

      Freefeeding a cat isn't how they should be fed. Feeding a cat 3-4 times a day is ideal. Before each feeding, they need to exercise. Out in the wild, they prey hunt catch and then eat. So doing that for them will help with many behavioral issues. I use the laser pointer to play with my cats and if your cats aren't use to exercising/playing, just be patient about it, they will come around. Keep trying. Some cats just like other toys more. Jackson Galaxy has many toys that cats like so I'd get some from him, get catnip and definitely a laser pointer.

    • @BrioaZ
      @BrioaZ 5 років тому +3

      I used to leave out for my cats too so I know how this is. Cats need you more than you think. They need exercise and a lot of it. Try doing it at least 10 minutes 3 times a day. If that can't be done, do 20 minutes on the last feeding before bed. They will be exhausted then eat and won't want to do much besides sleep. Many behavioral issues are solved by doing this. Now I'm not sure if this will solve it fully because there is a chance that something else is wrong with your cat so go to the vet if you can. Either way, please try feeding your cat the right amount, don't let the cat choose how much to eat and exercise is a MUST.

    My cat, Loki, was a very young stray who adopted me about two years ago. He kept getting beat up by neighborhood cats so after neutering, I transitioned him into being an indoor cat. A year later, he still howls incessantly late at night to go out. I've tried all the "Jackson Galaxy" things: enriched "catified" environment, play times, puzzle food, not rewarding the misbehavior, etc. Nothing works. He's been thoroughly checked out by cat specialists and is other wise perfectly healthy. With our climate (Texas) it's usually too hot or too cold, so mild weather where you can open windows is rare. When it is a mild day and I open the windows, it seems to "reset" my cat's memory of roaming free outside and his yowling to go out spikes for a few days...
    ...during the day I can deal with it' but my cat's 2am howling to go out goes on for hours and I'm almost at wits end. Loki is an otherwise sweet, affectionate kitty with no other annoying habits. Help.

    14 y/o hyperthyroid cat. After T4 levels are in low-normal range and blood work is stable (eye out for CKD) does it mean the yowling is likely the onset of dementia? The yowling began a aprox. 1 year after treatment for hyperthyroidism, no reinforcement schedules, has flap for outside and someone (me) studying so always home for attention, several fountains and routine wet/dry food always out. No mobility issues and otherwise very friendly, fairly good health (though high blood pressure + heavy since even before thyroid was treated, vet couldn’t believe fat cat w/ hyperthyroid). I'm worried she's in pain but there seems to be no trigger (and different symptom profile to original thyroid issue), osteoarthritis possible without any running/jumping deficits? The sound makes me worry I’ll take my own life in the dead of night (even after locking out of room). Would a human dosage of 500mg Glucosamine Hydrochloride + 500mg Fish Oil (90mg EPA/60mg DHA) be safe daily for cat around 15 lbs? Do l-theanine supplements contain caffeine from the tea leaves? Someone mentioned phenobarbital, could I try diazepam if it might be anxiety?

My kitten has just turned 7 months old, since last 1 month he is yowling/meowing a lot, especially he will go to balcony or in the compound and would meow loudly and as soon as I reach out to him, he'll stop meowing. He meows less when I play with him extra. Probably, just for attention? Thanks.

Never falls when the night comes he turns cray cray. Jumping on the bed scratching the mattress. Running like someone after him, bitting me when I’m sleeping. The meowing is the worst like I’m beating him in here. I know he’s Possessive like I’m his property and I don’t like it one bit. Oh yeah Doc, your cat don’t like you at all. Watch your throat at night cause she’s going to get you.

      I can sure relate to the soul-crushing sound part! I really think that's just part of the personality of some cats, and it's better than pissing in the house. Separating yourself from her at certain times is quite okay, I think, to make it possible to keep loving her, and to sleep. I'm sure you take good care of her and give her everything she needs.

    He demands my full attention for as long as he’s awake, and I’ve got to the stage where I really can’t take much more. I thought purchasing a kitten may help. But my VET stated that he could resent any attention paid, by ME, to the kitten and become hostile to it.

  • @basedbattledroid3507

    My cat is an indoors breed of cat, but his previous owners used to let him outside a lot, He can't really go outside because he keeps getting into trouble/getting hurt because he doesn't know what to do, runs around the neigborhood, chased by dogs, etc.
    We do have a lead for him, so we try to take him outside at least once a day for a few hours but he just gets louder and louder with the meowing, even after I've already taken him out.
    I've got no problem taking him outside; it's just that the meowing is so frequent and loud and it only increases each time whether I've taken him out or not .

Running around and doing backflips in the air. Playing really hard. He is a Bengal mixed if that has anything to do with it. He opens drawers and cupboards. And just is silly.
    My other Bengal mixed is relatively quiet. He meeps and squeeks a lot. He is Cheetos brother.
    Then I have Binx who is a little 10 week old baby who sometimes yowls but it's a quiet yowl. I usually think it's cause she's bored. Same might be for Cheetoh. But Cheetoh has been loud and vocal his whole life.

She's meowing excessively from the time that she's awake to the time she's asleep. She has completely stopped playing with her toys, even the new professional cat toys I bought for her. Her sleep timings are very disturbed and she is always crying to be let outside on her own. She appears to be very disturbed, even though she is given attention 24/7. She would not even let me hold her for even 30 seconds. What do I do? Please advise.
