Default Cat meowing all the time

some way to keep him entertained? We have another cat and he is just fine.
Any suggestions?


1. Is he neutered? If not, his raging hormones are probably causing
the majority of his meowing.
2. Please DON'T spray him with water. He is trying to communicate with
you and this will only frighten him or cause other bad habits to get
your attention.
3. How often do you play with him? A male cat at that age has a lot of
energy and needs play sessions with you at least twice per day. Use an
interactive wand, cat dancer, or whatever other toys he likes.
4. Do you have a cat tree for him to exercise on? How about a bird
feeder near the window he can watch?
5. Rotate his toys every few days so there's always something "new."
6. Give him extra love and attention. He might just need more
attention than your other cat.


He is neutered. He has been neutered since he was a kitten. We have taken him
to the Vet and there is nothing wrong with him physical. We play with him
during the day and before bed. We walk him outside on a leash and harness.
The other cat is very independent and so if anyone doesnt get attention its
him. This cat that is meowing plays all the time. We have trees right outside
our window so he can watch birds. We have probably 50 different toys that we
do interchange them.
