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?
Yes. We had a cat who was a bit of a glutton and would wake us up yowling in the early mornings. We stopped feeding him in the morning and just gave him a full day's meal at night. He didn't wake us up after that change.
Did you feed him just dry food? I'd be concerned about wet food going bad, especially in summer.
He always ate quickly so it was never an issue
A full day's meal in one go? He's really into food but I'd be afraid he'd vomit if he ate that much 😄
