    Incessant Crying - 17 yr old calico

    3 months ago I moved from a trailer to a townhouse and at first my cat seemed fine until about a week ago. She now goes from normal to incessant crying all the time. Last night I hardly slept at all because of the crying and I'm taking her to the vet Saturday to rule out any physical problems...
