Thank you for your reply! :)  I take her outside sometimes, but it's not usually when she's meowing.  I've taken her outside some days during the summer for years and it's never been a problem until now.  I will try ignoring her completely and see if it goes away.  Hard to do when she does it in...

My cat sits at the back door and paws at it, meowing loudly.  She'll do this multiple times a day, and many times at night, too.  She's an indoor cat, so I'm not letting her outside on her own.  She's been to the vet recently.  Just the last week or 2 she's started doing this.  She stops when...

I actually am thinking it's more likely hearing or ear related.  I just looked up the symptoms of both hyper- and hypothyroidism, and she doesn't have any of the other syptoms of either one.  But your comment on the hearing loss about cats being more easily startled and reacting - she does do...

Normal, I think...?

:-(   Alright, will do.  If it's thyroid issues, what are natural ways to heal it?  

Yes, she has been spayed.  She's 8 now and she's never done this before.  And this has been going on every night for the past week and every day for the last 2 or 3 weeks.  

My cat has recently decided that she likes to randomly yowl really loudly for no apparent reason.  She'll do this for 10 or 15 minutes at a time, easy.  It used to be she'd stop when someone played with her or whatever.  Now, she's doing it all the time, and nothing seems to make it stop.  We've...

For whatever reason, my cat enjoys carrying a puff ball toy to her food area, dropping it into the water bowl, and then picking it back up and dropping it in her food bowl where it stays until she feels like putting it her water again.  If you take it out and clean it and throw it in the other...

She's been spayed, yes.   She seems to only do it randomly, maybe once every couple of weeks or longer, so I've not noticed any kind of pattern or reason why she'd be doing this.  It doesn't seem to be that she doesn't like the litter box, because she uses it all the time with no problem, other...

A while back one of my 2 cats was peeing on clothes left on the floor.  We started giving her wet food every night with a little bit of a cat-friendly health tea added to it, and after a while she stopped.  She did have a bump under her chin that went away using the tea after a week or 2, and...

Yes, they're both declawed.   To make it easier, the one who meows at the door is Mango.  The one who pees outside the box is Cassie. Both cats were rescues, and both were adopted around 6 weeks old, I believe, and they're both now about 7 years old.  Regarding the litter box, we've been using...

I have 2 cats.  One of them sometimes prefers to find a bed or pile of laundry to pee in (doesn't seem to be any particular reason other than she just prefers it.  If we set her in the litter box, she usually pees right away, and it's only now and then that she looks for somewhere else to go.)...

gardenandcats - my thoughts exactly.  This guy is a jerk and you should get rid of him.  Animals have feelings, too.  And can you imagine how he might treat kids??  Especially babies and toddlers?  And as mentioned before, him turning things around and making it your fault can only get worse.

THe only difference I can think of is our other cat is much more relaxed lately and doesn't seem as scared of her.  He used to be afraid of everything, but he's just kind of grown out of it, I guess, and isn't as jumpy and skittish as he used to be.   We haven't changed anything with the...

If it was a UTI, wouldn't she avoid the litter box all the time?   The only time she ever does this is when I'm going to bed.  She follows me into the bedroom and starts looking for a place to go.  The rest of the day, she apparently uses the litter box, because I've never found or smelled...
